I love to make paintings, and use mixed media in artwork. I love to draw also
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my family, friends, past experiences, and my faith. I also love music, and going for walks and seeing nature is a huge inspiration. As well as listening to music while I paint.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $25,000 to really invest into my creative vision, and expand my portfolio. I would upgrade to higher quality materials and use them to enhance my skills. I don’t have much now, but I make do with what I do have. I would experiment with new mediums and try things that I can currently only dream of. I would focus on building my brand and allocate some of that into marketing so I can expand the reach of my work, so that people can hear the good news, the gospel
