I create to experience feelings I don’t allow myself to feel in my day to day life. I feel spirt and connection with every brush stroke.

My favorite type of art to create would have to be “dramatic realism”. I like to create black and white paintings and/or graphic drawings of real images and emphasize the emotions that I feel while looking at the original reference.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw my inspiration from real life, and natural subjects such as trees, water, and even rocks. The beauty of nature allows me to pull myself out of my body and connect one-on-one with Spirit. This experience allows me to put Spirit onto a canvas.
What would you do with $25,000?The 25,000 would allow me to help retire my mom so she can stop working two jobs. It would help take care of vet bills for my bearded dragon, It would also allow me to continue to pursue my artistic endeavors. I’m really just grateful to have been selected for such an amazing opportunity.
