My favorite type of art to create is textured mixed media, blending acrylic, plaster, and fabric elements to build layered, expressive pieces that tell powerful stories.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in childhood memories, my travels, and the everyday beauty of my surroundings.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would secure a small studio space to move out of my garage, allowing me to create larger-scale works, and open it up for after-school art programs to support and inspire young artists.
