I love to create art because it gives us insight to our inner subconscious world that is often ignored or unable to be articulated for many.

My favorite type of art to create is art that is vibrant in color at this time. I feel like the way I pour into my art and use colors—it’s like a visual representation of pouring life back into myself and then sharing it with others, whom get to visually have the experience as well.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from my higher self/ how I feel and what I feel led to produce by The Most High which is accordance to the general collective.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it back into myself as well as my sun (without him, I would not be this far into the conscious creation of my work—he is an essential part of being able to consciously connect to The Most High); to become the best version of ourselves to be able to quadruple that amount so that we can invest and pour back into our community. We would be able to invest into supplies needed, indoor spaces, and any further materials needed to assist in cultivating a space catered to workshops.
