Art helps me decompress from stress and allows me to paint what I am feeling. It’s challenging for me to express my feelings and how I feel.

Abstract acrylic paintings ?️
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from life and how I feel internally. I also find inspiration in fashion, traveling to different countries, learning about different cultures and backgrounds. Also, getting to know different people and their lives. When I paint it helps me decompress from stress.
What would you do with $25,000?I would finish my degree in business administration in order to run a business that provides jobs for the community and provide living and fair wages. My dream is to have a business that I can create art, purses, shoes, and clothing ethically and sustainable conditions.
