I create art by taking pictures to show the world the true beauty of all creations. A picture can be less than a thousand words.

Photography is my favorite art to create because each photo I take when looking through the lense of my camera. Viewing the world through my camera and taking photos has always been my personal expression of art through photography. Many pictures that I have taken have been for people to understand that a photo is more than a thousand words. It's more than one word, each photo is a memory in time.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration from the world and all of its beauty. When I was younger I used to look at pictures from when my grandfather was in the Navy during WW2 and my dad was in the Army during Vietnam. I would see their old photos in black and white, then picture them in color. The different tones, shades and colors of each photo. One day I picked up a camera and started taking photos. I haven't put my camera down since.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000 I would either use it in a few ways. I would put a certain amount down on a small house for my daughters and I. And I would use the rest to buy a Photography/Art studio.
