Watercolor Painting would be my favorite form of Art to Create. There is something about the patience of creating the art and allowing the layers to come together.
Where do you find inspiration?Johnnys Movies got me through some of the most difficult times in my life over the years. Several similar experiences that made me relate so deeply. Through watching him, overcome his situation, it truly inspired me to turn back to the things that I loved to do on my own, in my own space. Especially as a youth painting was always very enjoyable for me. Art has always helped me find myself again. I thank him for reminding me of that and inspiring me to get back to work.
What would you do with $25,000?I’ve had a DJ business as well as a small spiritual store that was a gathering place for several people within my community and I would definitely use this to Reinvest in my small business ventures to create that space again.
