I create art to tap into my childhood self. It’s my favorite way to connect with God that is personal to me. I feel free and without worry.

I love to create mixed media pieces using wet/dry supplies that create a complex variety of texture and color transitions. I typically enjoy creating work from nature for the sake of enjoying its beauty or more personal prices from my imagination.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in everything around me. From patterns to colors or even sweet experiences that I want to relive over and over. I create work to not only work through my own emotions but to inspire others as well.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use this money to retire my mother and find ways to give back to my community. As a veteran myself, I would first contribute to ending veteran suicide.
