I love the exploration, the ability to learn to create and continue to strive to do better. To teach others to do the same and grow together

Characters. I love designing characters for stories or illustrations. Seeing the idea that someone has come to life in my style is something truly wonderous to me.
Where do you find inspiration?From people. From within. People and their stories inspire creativity. Hearing the trials and tribulations and the character built from their experiences is what inspires me to see a character form from nothing into something great. Characters come from my own stories, my own experiences, inspired by the people ive met and the things ive seen being a veteran and a humble human being walking through lifes journey. I am inspired by everyone i meet and get a moment to embrace their stories.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly, i would pay debts. Fix my car. The rest? I would make sure some people on the west side (Hilltop) of Columbus who haven't eaten a good meal in a while would get a decent meal and their moment to share their stories.
