Where do you find inspiration?From life experiences/my 10 year chronic health journey and how art and mindfulness helped me heal/ Various cultures, I've explored Japanese art and Indian art influences heavily, they have an amazing artistic culture/ My personal meditation practice/ mysticism/anime and comics/ outside in the heart of it all, nature is the greatest artist, the source/ Movies and pop culture blending/ I have a profound love for animals.
What would you do with $25,000?I've been working on a story/ and animation concept for the 6 years based on a story my mom wrote when she adopted me and was inspired by children. We have developed the pre work and story building/world building . I knowsome funds like this could really help and get the ball rolling on production. A story of adventure and healing, for young adults to adults, inspirational and practical, a heroes journey that can grow with you and guiding through the turmoil of life.
