It’s just in my being. I have been drawing since I could pick up a pencil, and to be able to create art makes me happy beyond belief.

It’s a tie between embroidery and painting! I’ve been doing both for about 10 years as a hobby and now I make hand-embroidered patches. I love to draw and paint as well, with varying mediums like clothing or canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?Everywhere! I would say a good amount of inspiration comes from the media that I consume, whether it comes from music or film or even video games. Some notable artists that have been huge inspirations for me would probably be Yoji Shinkawa, Miyazaki, Hideaki Anno, Van Gogh, to name a few. I’ve always been drawn to Impressionism, surrealism, and a lot of the eye catching or thought provoking modern art.
What would you do with $25,000?There are a couple things that come to mind! First and foremost, I would put money into my small business so that I can be able to sell my art at different events such as conventions or markets. Secondly I would want to have a space where my creative friends and I can have a space to create together. I would also love to be able to have a semi-regular event for us and other artists in my local community can share and sell their art.
