What is your favorite type of art to create?

My favorite type of art to create is anything where I can experiment and just be free to work with different materials. Experimentation is a great way to work through ideas and just have fun, incorporating different mediums and media into one piece is an amazing experience. Multimedia art is fun and creative, it’s also something that allows others to interact with your work.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration from many things, nature, architecture and just life in general. Most of my creative ideas just come from working with people or materials. I love hearing what people think and how that changes their interactions with the world.

What would you do with $25,000?

What would I do with $25000, I’m currently a student at university, so that money would go towards my education. I’m currently studying studio arts and I’m trying to build a good relationship with the art community.
