When the world gets noisy, I can focus on creating.

Right now I love colored pencils. I have dabbled in a lot of different mediums, but there is something about the vibrancy and forgiveness colored pencils offer.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration through nature and animals. As a life long animal lover, I am always in awe of God's creatures and creations. I've done animal rescue for 15 years. It's a lot of dark moments, and in my art I can let the fun moments shine through.
What would you do with $25,000?It would make it easier to help with vet costs for rescues (not just mine) and help get a better set up for the ones I help. Specifically want to focus on cats and helping rehabbers with wildlife. I feel like they get overlooked the most. I do what I can each year as far as helping animals but AR is overrun. Our laws are outdated. I'd use a smaller portion to put a down payment on a home that would better fit what I do. we are put on this earth for a reason. My reason is to help animals.
