Creating art helps me express things I can't show through words. Art helps me grieve, and better myself, and remember the things I've lost.

I really like creating emotional pieces about how my feelings and my past. Particularly through acrylic paint.
Where do you find inspiration?In novels and books. That deep feeling you get when you read something that truly moves you, that's what I try to do through paint.
What would you do with $25,000?Buy more art supplies, I've always wanted to get really good paint. I currently use stuff from the dollar store, and things that were handed down to me. But I'd also like to use it to be able to start my career as an artist. Being an artist is very difficult, it's hard to make money. I come from a pretty low income family, and being an artist was never in the cards for me. That never stopped me from wanting it anyway.
