I really enjoy creating digital and traditional art. Digital art helped me a lot with developing an art style of my own, and toying with color palettes and different effects. I have been doing traditional art for a long time, it is what helped me to start creating art in the first place. I love experimenting with different materials, from markers to acrylic paint. I love using them together to see how they make one cohesive piece. I also love taking pictures, especially of flowers and nature.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through the things I love. Most of the time, it's a fandom or a song. For example, Five Nights at Freddy's is what motivated me to create art, and Hazbin Hotel inspired me to develop an art style. Many of my pieces are inspired by songs as well, such as one I did based off of "Your Idol" from Kpop Demon Hunters, or one based off the song "For Her" from the Great Gatsby musical.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, it would allow me to be able to pay for much of what I need to go to college for Game Art, which has been a dream of mine for a long time. I've been having a hard time getting scholarships, and that amount of money would help me to achieve my dreams.
