My favorite type of art is drawing. But ever since my arthritis started acting up in my hands I started painting and fell in love. The reason why painting is my favorite is because you can express a lot of emotion even through the little things like brushstrokes.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from the little things throughout the day. I can be inspired just by how the sun is shining through my bedroom window, creating shadows in my room. Or it can be just by spending the day outside in the Vegas weather and nature. I also found inspiration from Van Gough, Tim Burton, Salvador Dali and Lisa Frank. But sometimes if that doesn’t help I like to listen to music for inspiration. Music gives a perspective(idea) I never would’ve thought of or felt.
What would you do with $25,000?With a 25,000 I would want to do two things if it is possible. I would like to open up a business in Vegas that can be a public area for people/kids to do that Art Work and express themselves or just go there to also study and do their homework a safe space. At the same time I would also like to have a coffee shop in there and have coffee from all around the world to experience. If that’s not possible I would like to give the money to my mom so we can save up and get a house.
