I always loved to create art as my grandfather was one of my biggest inspirations. It's a great way to remember him and escape reality.

I have to go with abstract. My grandfather did all sorts of art, but I loved his abstract pieces more than anything, especially since I'm not so experienced with realism. Abstract feels less pressuring and more freeing.
Where do you find inspiration?My grandfather was my largest inspiration, and much of my family got the "artistic gene" as well, so I always had something to aspire to.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000, it would greatly help. Im not someone who only supports just himself, but I help my mother and my grandmother, as well as my girlfriend. I would finally be able to support them without worry. I'd save a chunk for the future, as well as buy a ring for my love. I always said that if I became rich or got a huge sum of money, I wouldn't be selfish. If I ever became rich, I'd donate and support those I love in my family and community.
