I fear I have lost contact with the love I felt for art. I would love to grasp hold of that love again and explore it.

I have always had a love for drawing. It may be one of the simplest forms of art but it brings great satisfaction to see my creation to match what I wanted to depict. I miss being able to paint but I hardly have the time and attention span for it. I feel like the notebook when she said she doesn’t have time to paint anymore though it was for herself.
Where do you find inspiration?I usually get inspired by other artists on social media and it sparks my interest to possibly get better. I’m currently in college so my time is mainly consumed by school. But it is amazing to be reminded of just how talented I can possibly be if put in the effort.
What would you do with $25,000?There’s so many ways this money can be used but I would want to use it in a way that benefits myself and my family. My great grandma was the closest person to me till the day she passed and her house consumes a lot of memories of our entire family but the house is in such a disarray. So I would want to give a helping hand to restore it as much as I possibly could. Also cause my great grandfather is still very much alive and he would love to witness the remarkable change.
