I love having the ability to sit down and breathe life onto any surface with any material.

Carefully planned, multilayered graphite art is my favorite type to create. I can take my pencils anywhere and don't need any fancy prepwork or setup for them, and I can stretch them far with various techniques. I love composition arrangments that play well with whatever person, object, or flower Im drawing.
Where do you find inspiration?Most of my inspiration actually comes from the music I'm listening to or one-off phrases from everyday life. Ethel Cain, Florence and the Machine, and a whole swath of 80s goth bands fuel my creativity.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly I would go to art school, or try and expand my Anthropology degree into an MFA in studio arts to combine the two. Its that or Id take a little bit of time off of work to just *sleep* and really hone in an art portfolio.
