My favorite art to create is pop surrealism. I was trained in this art style, so I have a lot of mileage in the creation of it. I primarily use acrylic and prefer to paint on wooden art boards.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through dreams and creating farse like stories to create a narrative for my characters and the environments in which they exist.
What would you do with $25,000?I would put the 25 k away for a rainy day, make more killer artwork, oh and pay off some debt.
