What is your favorite type of art to create?

I enjoy the process of making all kinds of art, but I find the most joy when I'm painting.

Where do you find inspiration?

Nature is basically my giant outdoor studio. I’m obsessed with the contrast of gloomy rain and bright sunrises. Honestly, if the light catches a tree or breaks through the clouds in a cool way, I have to paint it immediately.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would put it towards building my dream of being successful as an artist. Ive always wanted to have an art studio for people to have a space to be creative.
