What is The People's Artist?

What is your favorite type of art to create?

Encaustic (wax) or anything that is textured. I love the way art feels and I want to make art for everyone, not just for ppl to see but also feel.

Where do you find inspiration?

Everywhere. But... In reality, I don't art. Art uses me as a vessel to come out and play. When I try to do it again it isn't nearly as good.

What would you do with $25,000?

A lot of things. I could really use that money for many diff things, buy a car finally, get more art supplies, invest in myself to go even further as an artist. I'm trying to create a business, which in today's time isn't easy. And I want to be able to create a company that not only pays their employees more than a proper wage, but also be able to give back to my community. Fingers crossed!!
