What is your favorite type of art to create?

I love creating what I believe would fall into the abstract expressionism category. I use a combination of multiple forms of media such as using acrylic paint and clay on one canvas.

Where do you find inspiration?

Within my own struggles and how those around aid my path in becoming the best me.

What would you do with $25,000?

I’m not entirely sure for certain. Part of me thinks I could put it towards my forever home and pay off some debt. The other part of me wants to put it aside and let the future show me when the right time to use it would be. Whatever it may be I will not let that change the way I’m living my current life. I submitted my application for this to share my art with the world. It’s all I’ve ever wanted.
