What is your favorite type of art to create?

Hard to say but if absolutely pushed at gunpoint it’s creating imagery aka taking pictures from my mind a putting them in the right medium which is usually a tie from painting/sketching to forming like via metal or clay. Second is a type of writing/motion capture process aka scene building. I know that probably a cop out but painting/sketching was really just the start of me redesigning my world and creating scenes was how I pictured people using that redesigned place.

Where do you find inspiration?

It usually something small that has potential. Like in its shape or function. I like giving things their platform to thrive so seeing something’s potential being overlooked gives me the excuse to get it more options to be seen and used/enjoyed.

What would you do with $25,000?

Politecorp and Politeways foundation(nonprofit) are my corporations created to help me create platforms that help others via my guiding mission/tenets of Creation with Innovation, Intelligence with Opportunity and Courtesy with Service. So genuinely speaking I would use it to create avenues to raise more money to make the my larger dream of a maker’s hub. (maker’s hub:place geared at creating world’s fair level workspaces to create/innovate as a way to create/present new futures)
