I love paint. Specifically, acrylic. I find it very easy to use and it’s really adaptable. I can pile on layers of paint and it can still turn out great.
Where do you find inspiration?Nature. Landscapes are my inspiration. I find nature so beautiful and calming.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it in a money market and make passive income to be able to afford a down payment for a house.
