Art is always about expressing oneself and everyone takes something different away from said art piece. Art brings people together.

I love sketches, which is the art that I have attached. This is because you can do so much with just a pencil. All you need is a little bit of imagination and patience to really create something beautiful that everyone can enjoy.
Where do you find inspiration?Since I have always been into art, and have wanted to be an artist all my life, I really draw inspiration from everything everywhere. Art is everywhere, and I believe more people should see that. As I usually draw more florals, I love going to gardens, or even just on a simple hike. Connecting with nature is the most simple way to spark inspiration for me.
What would you do with $25,000?As I am only 18 years old, and have only been creating art for a couple of years, I would definitely put it to my business: PaperEditCreations. I would buy more supplies, and extend my portfolio and media. The dream is to have a room that I can call my studio, so I would save up after college to have an apartment with a spare room for more of my artworks. I would even maybe take some art classes to learn new techniques and skills to better my craft.
