I create art for a multitude of reasons but mainly for myself, I can express myself uniquely and show others my true self.

I truly enjoy illustration the most, but recently a love for 3D works has developed after an exhibition I was featured in. I spent time creating and working in series and it was such a lovely experience.
Where do you find inspiration?A lot of my inspiration comes from my favorite people. Artists I look up to, my family, my friends, they all motivate me. My best friend was very into creepy or unsettling works and he unfortunately passed away last year, I strive to make more work he’d love.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off college and get myself an apartment for the first time. I would finally get my own space and not have to live with anyone else, I would be able to fulfill my dreams and become a psychology and neuroscience major.
