What is your favorite type of art to create?

I Like all kinds of art. I don't know if I have a favorite type. I draw and paint, craft things. I write sometimes sing. It really depends on which "creative craving" I have.

Where do you find inspiration?

My inspiration is all over. One thing I cannot do yet is draw caricatures or cartoons. I can copy them but I can't make my own up. If I could I would have made several cartoons of everyday life. The birds chirping at one another, the crazy lady trying to match all the torn up mail together at the post office. I feel like there is inspiration everywhere for me.

What would you do with $25,000?

Ive been a single mom since I was 17. I have never been able to get my teeth fixed. I had to have my top teeth pulled. Im only 47. I wear a top denture and Im allergic to everything that is used to keep them secured. It’s painful when I eat. Sometimes when I’m not eating. So I would get some type of implant. That would be a relief a dream. I don’t know what it feels like anymore to eat without pain. I try to ignore it, but sometimes it’s hard.
