I create art because it’s my own personal way to express myself and how I see beauty in the world around me.

My favorite types of art is visual and applied arts. I paint and I make wire wrapped jewelry with crystals and assorted metals.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in nature, my culture and the world around me seen and unseen. I also take inspiration from my travels the world is such a beautiful place and I love to share it through my art.
What would you do with $25,000?Well when I win the first thing I would do is put some away in an emergency fund. Secondly I would take my mom with me on trip. She introduced me to art, she encouraged my art so I feel like it’s only right that she should celebrate with me. And lastly I would like to invest in me and my art. I would love a bigger space to work ,larger canvas, more paint. Becoming a full time artist is my goal and I can’t wait because it’s so much more to art and I want to spend the rest of my life creating art.
