Theres something so satisfying about starting with nothing, a blank page, and turning it into something I can be proud of.

I like to create my pieces using a variety of mediums such as graphite pencils, gouache and acrylic paints and colored pencils. I like to create art that gives me a feeling of comfort, things that I find joy in.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my art inspiration in a mix of everyday moments and things. I also find a lot of inspiration in video games, movies and other artists and their work. Inspiration doesn’t always show up on its own. Sometimes I have to go looking for it.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000, I’d treat it as a mix of opportunity and responsibility. I’d use it to get my own apartment as I currently live with my mom and grandma, and most likely save the rest.
