My favorite is my decently regular subject, “Gloomers” in the form of acrylic paintings. They are based off of my own reflection in a way. With the acrylics I can layer them and blend them in ways that I feel fully express their looks and emotions. Acrylic and Pencil are my two favorite mediums!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in music, my childhood, nature, and older styles of art
What would you do with $25,000?I would save a good majority of it. I would use it to get a new place. I would put some in my son’s savings account. It would help a lot.
