Art has always been a part of me, I have a love for beauty, art and vibrant colors. It is how I express myself, my emotions and feelings.

It's in between writing poetry/song-lyrics, short stories, photography/video making. Writing is an outlet for my thoughts and feelings. It doesn't matter what I'm feeling whether it's good or bad, happy or sad. As long as I can feel something because it is a part of life. Any of us can turn pain into art, photography is one of those venues. Every day of our lives is like a page out of a story. I take pictures with my eyes just like a satellite of the mind. Even creating sketches/designs.
Where do you find inspiration?What comes to me, how I personally feel about our world, people that have become a part of our lives in one form or another. Hopes, dreams, wishes and memories. What we all need is warmth, love, light and smiles. To be able to grow, to evolve and to prosper. Even the weather can be a benefiting factor on how we approach each day and night of our lives. A dream, a nightmare can inspire any of us to draw, sketch or write. What we might be fortunate enough to capture in photography.
What would you do with $25,000?Having this much money would be a pleasant surprise and it would be put toward taking care of expenses. Improvements on our home that my brother and I both own. Helping out any family members that might be in need of help, struggling with financial problems. Perhaps investing in an authentic cause that I really believe in. Even putting money in the bank to save and put towards things that would be deemed necessary. That way I would be better prepared in case of an emergency in the future.
