Creating art gives me a way to be productive with the madness that lingers in my mind and find solace in my sorrow.

Mixed media is my favorite form because it allows limitless expression. I combine materials freely, often incorporating acrylic paint to build texture and depth. By layering tangible elements, I elevate the intangible—transforming emotion and imagination into something physical and immersive.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw inspiration from nature, other artists, my own raw emotions, and the presence of beautiful women. Each evokes a feeling in me, and I work to capture and translate that energy into something visual.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d invest in myself and my art—refining my craft, expanding my resources, and building a stronger platform to create and share work with intention. I’d pour it into time, space, and the freedom to create without hesitation, flowing with what moves me and turning it into something real.
