What is your favorite type of art to create?

I create from my subconscious. To deliver the truth of my mind and to truly give a piece of me in every canvas . My preferred is oil , Charcoal and ink

Where do you find inspiration?

The obscurity of the mind fascinates me to no end. The perception of each of us is vast and complex. If I can give truth in my art and to see the truth others find in my children always pushes me to further creat and understand. Compassion of the human condition in its sorrows and happiness and its tragedies. But also to creat the world and how I see it and hopefully if one finds comfort or understanding in my work tho we are apart we are linked. To the future and the past let freedom reign

What would you do with $25,000?

I would open my own art studio to expand my art and help others express their own passions and dreams. And find their way to freedom.
