The kind that brings me the most peace is painting while listening to music. I use acrylic, gouache, pastel, watercolor, and anything else I can put in a canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?My life. I mean it from the bottom of my heart that I create because I need it. My father passed away last year, along with a couple other family members. The only way I could survive 2025 was through art in all forms: music, dance, painting, writing ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. My life is art.
What would you do with $25,000?I am going to audio engineering school in September and wasn’t able to receive the federal Pell grant. This would cover my whole tuition.
