I think as humans, we have a need to create things with our hands. Bringing my thoughts to life thru my hands brings me joy.

I am a crafter so the majority of things I create are with my hands but I love photography. I love to capture moments in time that our brains will eventually forget. A photo can last forever.
Where do you find inspiration?In the wild. I always feel my most creative out in the woods or even my backyard. Wherever there are creatures and plants and just life. I also find inspiration when I go to thrift and antique stores. I hav always loved to just look at all the things people have created. I rarely buy something to take home unless it speaks to me and usually it’s something whimsical.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly- pay bills. Sad that it has to be that way in our world. I’d always use it for a trip with my family. Maybe sneak a trip to NYC to watch some other artists works thru different mediums (painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, broadway, street art ).
