What is your favorite type of art to create?

Paintings with mixed mediums mostly acrylics.. pure expression through motions which i feel evokes emotion.

Where do you find inspiration?

In the simplest moments there are fractures of possibilities and I like to show no matter what your current situation is there's an opportunity to make something beautiful out of it.

What would you do with $25,000?

I'd create a studio that's more accessible for me. I'm a victim of gun violence in Chicago so the first thing I'm doing of course is investing in a space to put even more energy into my art so I can do larger pieces and utilize it as a gallery as well. I've been selling my paintings for a year on tiktok/artbyangelollc and already have sold almost 100 pieces on my own. My website is artbyangelo.com but im literally doing it in a small corner of my home, and of course supplies.
