I love to create art because it gives all the ideas in my head somewhere to go. I create cool things that sometimes have a meaning.

My favorite type of art to create would have to be illustration. I often don’t have a deep meaning behind a lot of the artwork I create, ideas pop into my head and I just have to get them out. When asked what my art style is, I usually respond with, “Cool artwork that you’d see on posters, stickers, t-shirts, etc.” More recently, I have began illustrating my emotions and mental health with the characters of my artwork. I am self described as a chill gal creating not so chill art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration first and foremost within my head, whether that’s just executing the ideas that pop up, or actually articulating my mental health into a piece of art. I find inspiration by looking at others works and what they create. I find inspiration within the community I am in, both in person and online. I also gather inspiration from social issues and often illustrate artwork advocating for social justice.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would be able to actually setup somewhere to sell my art. I have so much I could have out there, but the cost of getting things printed to sell plus the cost of setting up is too much for me. They weren’t joking when they said artists are starving.
