What is your favorite type of art to create?

Most of my life has been dedicated to sketch art. As I have grown older I find that the most meaningful art is often random and found in fleeting moments. That is where the space in which I base most of my art now.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in feeling. If a time comes where your heart feels full and a burst of creativity arrives then it should be an outlet. Thats the inspirational feeling I chase.

What would you do with $25,000?

The past few years I have been struggling, this year especially. Not only with finding work, but also financially, and personally. That $25,000 would be put toward reclaiming my independence and sense of freedom. This People's Artist event, though, is mostly about showcasing some of my special moments.
