Painting is how I truly connect with the world around me. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about using my hands to create something!

Painting and illustrations
Where do you find inspiration?Honestly, I’m just inspired by the stuff most people walk right past. I love the sway of the trees or just the feeling of a morning routine. There’s a spark there that’s hard to put into words, but I try to put it into my art. I’m just drawing from the world and the artists I admire, hoping to create something that gives someone else that same 'wow' moment.
What would you do with $25,000?Winning this contest would mean the world to me, because it would finally let me build the dream studio space I’ve been sketching out in my head. I’m looking to set up a mid-sized, open room where I actually have the freedom to move around, pace, and step back from the easel to really look at a piece. My goal is to create a space that breathes—one side dedicated to the beautiful mess of traditional painting and drawing with great lighting, and the other side tailored for digital creations!
