I creat art to describe my personality and style, it’s always rewarding to see how something I made comes to life and makes people happy!

My favorite type of art to create is more on the abstract side, I do realism but it’s mostly in charcoal. when it comes to abstract I like to do 3D art which is a mix of modeling paste and thick body acrylic. I combine my culinary skills (I want to be a pastry chef as well) to create flowers and food for my pieces.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from things and emotions all around me. I did a piece about American foods, I live in America so I have American foods all around me. I also did a shark piece that was covered in 3D flowers and that one was about seeing things in a different perspective. There is inspiration everywhere for whatever you’d like to create.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won $25,000 I would save most of it to go towards my the culinary school that I wanna go to. I would also put it towards a few new art supplies such as a good easel because I’ve always wanted a sturdy one and I would like to try wood burning so I would put it towards those supplies as well.
