What is your favorite type of art to create?

Surrealist humanist forms with spiritual roots.

Where do you find inspiration?

Mostly my culture gives me so much in flavor that it comes out in the work. The colors and textures.

What would you do with $25,000?

I lost my studio last year and I’m in a much smaller place, so I think I would use it to join an art group space and make more art and have more shows with it. Also donate a few murals in my community.
