I love realism and trying to capture beauty and pop culture I enjoy done freehand in pencil. For me, art is therapy.

Realistic pencil drawings - in graphite or colored pencil (but mostly graphite)
Where do you find inspiration?The emotion and composition in the subject - the lighting, color, and beauty of the subject. Sometimes I see something and I just really want to capture it and express it in pencil
What would you do with $25,000?I would probably upgrade my tools and use it to help me get a table at bigger conventions to try to showcase my artwork (they're so expensive and quite a gamble for a broke artist). I'd also love to take my wife and son on a little trip of some kind somewhere, too.
