The reason I love to create art is honestly because I’ve just loved the feeling of creating something new and art has always been my outlet.

My favorite type of art to create varies between is horror, realism, abstract and shonen styled art. I like to try to combined these four into one to create a style I find appealing & creative. I am drawn to these styles of art because I find them unique and I don’t see a lot of representation of these styles together.
Where do you find inspiration?Over the years I have found my inspiration from a various amount of things. For example, I usually draw off of my interpretation of things I see in tattoo books, horror movies, physiological movies, the environment, live studies etc. I also, at times, use multiple reference photos to put an art piece together if I am not making an art piece based off of interpretation.
What would you do with $25,000?If I were to win the $25,000 dollars I would put most of the money up ( about $20,000) towards paying for my college expenses, getting a low budget car, and investing towards my future. Then, with the rest I would put the money toward helping my mother get a surgery in order to get rid of her Hidradenitis Suppurativa. My mom is a single mother and she has struggled with HS since she conceived me and I feel it’s only right ,if I have the money to help her get rid of it, to help her.
