Hello, my name is Marsha. From a young age, I've explored drawing, sketching, painting, and designing my own clothing. Creating is who I am.

Black culture, Fan Art and Japanese Animation.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw inspiration from the chaos, darkness, pain, hatred, racism, and the harsher sides of the world, and I try to transform that ugliness into something meaningful and beautiful. I’m also inspired by the anime and manga I’ve experienced, which influence both my perspective and creativity.
What would you do with $25,000?First, I would like to donate to St. Jude Children’s Hospital. Second, I want to support family members who could use a little extra help. Finally, I plan to invest in the art business I started this year after losing my job. Although that experience was difficult and involved being mistreated, it led me to rediscover art as a way to cope with stress and anxiety and ultimately inspired me to turn it into something meaningful.
