What is your favorite type of art to create?

Honestly, I enjoy creating art in all different forms it’s hard to pick just one. That’s why I don’t, more recently, I have enjoyed creating natural scapes with plants, florals and stone. Working with lighting to create interesting spaces to BE in. More often than anything else I have found myself coming to a canvas working with mixed media, acrylic, pastel, texture with earth element texture. Experimenting to combine those two together natural scape space/beautiful art within.

Where do you find inspiration?

From the natural world. Just driving through the desert after a rainstorm and seeing the colors that nature has already put into place with color pallets. The way the natural world shifts & changes in the most perfect hues. Even beyond earth, seeing, stars, sun, moon galaxies and how that just is. So “God / source“ I suppose is the inspire.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would create a space to have healing art modalities and art therapy in my community, where people can come and learn and process through the heART! 25k would help me make this long time dream come true.
