It's the only thing that keeps me sane and my mind is full of ideas and can't stop putting them on paper. A lot of my stuff is my heart

My favorite is abstract. I love color although I do love black and white also. Many of my drawings are from what I've experienced in life with family and friends that are addicted to drugs. It helps me never forget the struggles but also helps me heal from them. I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil. It's all I really wanna do. I'm just having a hard time getting my stuff seen. This is a major opportunity for me and would love this journey
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration as soon as I wake up. I walk outside and all comes to life. My feelings never stop. So while I'm at work painting houses, I'm thinking of my next piece. I sleep thinking about my next piece. It's pretty much my life right now
What would you do with $25,000?If I won this great achievement I would open my own studio for all to be able to come see my stuff and even teach beginners. Art is a great channel for stress release and that is what everyone needs to know and feel.
