I LOVE to experiment with new mediums. I feel like the most rewarding work is the work I make when I feel like art is my last option. I love observing what draws my eye and what makes me feel the most to hopfully invite others to listen or share their story.
Where do you find inspiration?People watching. I spent most of my life always being too curious and observing the world around me. I flip through my sketchbooks and observe past thoughts. I enjoy drawing from memory or dreams.
What would you do with $25,000?As I am approaching graduation, I am fearful of what life has next for me. I really want to continue art school or explore art n cosmetology. My dream would to move to the city and find paid opportunities to create or continue art school.
