The reason I love to create art is because in a day where consumerism is the most prominent I have an aching need and desire to output that.

My favourite art to create is always art that comes from my soul that is like a beautiful throw up of all my thoughts into the canvas. Particularly I love to work with acrylic and oil paints however I dabble in every kind of media as well. Particularly I love to paint everything at the moment as I am still figuring out my art style.
Where do you find inspiration?My mother was an amazing artist whom grew up in Soviet Poland however she never got to pursue a talent she was oh so good at. I used to watch her be able to paint a perfect artist style canvas of fruits in a basket or make a perfectly proportional sketch of me as a baby or any of our relatives. She was amazing and I always looked up to her. Her talent was passed down to me when I drew the Virgin Mary on a peice of paper at 7. I haven’t seen my mom since I was 9 so she keeps me going.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to start my beauty business that will be doing lashes, facials, brow waxing, makkeup and hair extensions along with buying equipment for content creation with my art! I would also feel secure with my living and so excited to create and not consume.
