During COVID I learned to do slow meditation drawing. This introduced me to watercolor painting, which always intimidated me. Watercolor is now my favorite medium to use.
Where do you find inspiration?Inspiration comes to me at random times. It can be while I'm driving to work and looking at the shadows in the desert mountains or the beautiful morning sunset. I notice shadows and shapes and that is what inspires me to re-create the beautiful, peaceful images.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won the $25,000, I would pay off my credit cards and put money aside to save for my son's upcoming wedding in 2027. However, this is not about if I win, it's about sharing my work with everyone to either love it or hate it and being strong enough to say " I did it!"
