I am autistic 17 year old. I draw to share my world. Trains help me express what I feel when words are hard

My favorite type of art is drawing trains and characters inspired by them. I enjoy creating detailed scenes with colors and movement. Drawing helps me express myself in ways that words sometimes cannot, and it makes me feel calm and happy.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in trains, movement, and the world around me. I like watching how things move and imagining new versions of them. Colors, shapes, and everyday moments give me ideas. Drawing helps me turn what I see and feel into something real.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would keep creating art with better supplies, but I would also use part of it for something very special. As a kid with autism who loves trains, I would love to travel to Europe and experience trains in real life. Trains inspire my drawings, and being there, feeling them and seeing them, would mean a lot to me and my art.
