What is your favorite type of art to create?

I have many forms of art. Anything from charcoal drawing, pencil drawing, photography, to woodburning ( pyrography), to writing poetry.

Where do you find inspiration?

Honestly I find Inspiration in just about everything I do. I feel in today's society we take a lot for granted. Most of us usually have a phone in our hands or our kids are glued to the TV. Don't get me wrong technology is great and I love to sit down and watch a great movie, but I love to go outside and hike. Stop and listen to the birds and other wildlife. Just take time away from anything electric.For me inspiration can be found in a child playing outside, the waves crashing on the beach.Etc.

What would you do with $25,000?

I am currently a young grandparent of two beautiful babies. One is 8 weeks old and the other one just turned 5. I would love to take the money, if I won an invest it for them both. So later on down the road they can use it towards college, a car or a home.
