Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in life experiences and reflection. Some of my best ideas come from moments of growth, challenges I’ve overcome, relationships, nature, and the emotions that connect us all. Art allows me to process experiences and express thoughts that are difficult to put into words. I love creating pieces that encourage viewers to reflect and find their own connection to the work.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in expanding my artistic practice by purchasing materials, exploring new techniques, and creating larger, more ambitious projects. I would also donate a portion to nonprofit hospice organizations that provide compassionate care and support to individuals and families during difficult times. This opportunity would allow me to grow as an artist while using creativity to make a meaningful impact in the community.
