I love to create art because I can express feelings, emotions, and words that are difficult to let out. It's an outlet.

My favourite type of art to create is acrylic and oil painting of characters, people and scenes of nature. Although I also love to draw people and places because I feel a deep connection with my art. Overall, my favourite type of art is oil and acrylic. I can blend the mediums, colours and add my own touch into the art piece to express what I want it to show.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in things around me such as people, things, places, and nature. I see art online or something around me and get inspiration, I like to capture things in the moment with photography to start my own art piece. I get inspired by other people too. Sometimes I'll be asked to create something or if it's something they like I get an idea in my head where I have to start sketching.
What would you do with $25,000?What would I do with $25,000? I'd save as much as I can because money doesn't grow on trees and most things involve money nowadays. But I'd pay some bills and help my grandparents out because they've had me since I was very very little. I'm also a single mother who is struggling to get a job so I'd like my son to grow up in a stable home where he has food and water on the table and clean clothes as he gets older.
