I create art because of its many puzzles. Each piece has its own unique challenges. Solving those challenges is the fun part of making.

Three dimensional art is my favorite art to make. Sculptures and ceramic pottery are my main focus of art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration through everyday life. I recently finished a series of art works around mental health (something I am impacted by on a daily). I also love to make art about nature and its beauty wonders.
What would you do with $25,000?I would expand my art making capabilities. With the cost of materials and things a like, I am currently only able to make smaller pieces. I am wanting to expand to larger scale art work and this prize would help.
