I have been a creator since I was a very young child. I have always had a vivid imagination and creating gives me a relaxing outlet.

I do not have a favorite type exactly. I love creating mixed media art. Using bits and pieces of scrap or things most people would just throw away to create something beautiful. I guess my favorite type is anything with no boundaries so I can just let my creativity run. One of a kind pieces that make people feel something when they see it.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere. The world and my life is full of inspiration. My children, husband, family, and friends inspire me daily. Bike trips we take to beautiful places give me inspiration. We went on a trip to Maggie Valley, NC last year with our son and daughter in law. The place we stayed had a fire pit with the glass chunks in it. The glass inspired me and the beauty around us. I just find inspiration everywhere.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly, it truly depends on what my life is like at that point. I could say anything from bills, vacation, or more supplies to create with.
