What is your favorite type of art to create?

Photography is my favorite right now. Like i said in the other response I like showing people things that i find beautiful and hold value to me. Some of the pictures that i take don't make any sense to other people but they make sense to me and remind me of loved ones and fond memories. I also love working in traditions mediums, but with being a full time student it makes it a little bit hard to have the time. I love alcohol markers, oil and acrylic paints, and a good old pencil and paper.

Where do you find inspiration?

I love learning! I love experimenting with things and learning how they work. So while I may not be the most talented artist on the planet, I find the most inspiration and fun is when I'm learning something new. I try new things and working to improve my skills, most of the time slowly, but it gets there! I also find inspiration from the world around me. I'm completely astounded by the world around me on a regular basis, how beautiful it is and I get to sit and enjoy it everyday :)

What would you do with $25,000?

To be honest, I would pay off my car debt, and put the rest of the money toward school and savings. I’m not a huge spender and would rather use the money to reduce my debt and invest in my education. I would also invest more in myself and my photography to help advance my experience—through classes, lenses, and possibly a newer camera.
