I absolutely love creating mixed media art because it gives me the freedom to create without limit.I’m able to explore different materials and combine them in many different ways.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through my emotions. Art has allowed me to express how I feel or have felt in different moments, turning those feelings into something visual and meaningful.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000 I would put a portion towards my college tuition, invest some for the future, and use the remainder to create and develop my art.
