What would you do with $25,000?I would invest the $25,000 into growing my art business into something sustainable and community-driven. I’d upgrade my workspace, invest in higher-quality materials and tools, build out my website and inventory, and fund booth setups for local markets. I also want to create accessible content and resources that show others how to use art as a healing, meditative practice, so the impact extends beyond just my work.
