Creating is my way of expression, I pull inspiration from shows, movies & things I see while on the road traveling. It’s euphoric.

Landscapes. I love to create/recreate paintings a person can envision themselves in. It’s a way for me to create my own world within my works of art. I also create abstracts because I love hearing a person’s view on what they see within my abstract, no 2 are ever the same & it’s all so interesting to hear. It makes me want to create more of them.
Where do you find inspiration?Initially, Bob Ross. I used to watch him as a child, as I got older I drew inspiration from friends, family, travel and other creative types (not necessarily painters). I share a creative space with my best friends and they inspire me to paint every time they work on their crafts.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000 I would invest in studio space for me to create more art. Travel to Italy, Spain or France because where else can you go for beautiful culture, art & landscapes. It’ll allow me to see more of the world so I can draw inspiration from other countries. That’s my dream
