What is your favorite type of art to create?

My favorite type of art is things not spoken enough of. Amimals,certain colors,beautiful everyday simple objects. I like to make my paintings as bright & shiny as possible. I use all mediums & paint on all surfaces. I follow my intuition & always post & share my work,money or not. I love it & it brings me joy to create something beautiful. I like neons,metallics,glitter,leaf,clay,etc. Canvas,posters,wood,drywall,foam,drywall,etc. Takes countless hours & grit

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration mostly in nature. Simple but effective & always beautiful. People,places,animals,superheros,landscapes, its timeless images & feelings. Art just glimmer in sunlight. They always look different in a way. Hard to go against the crowd & stick with it. The world needs great beautiful art, we can all agree on that. It heals,gives hope & knows no quit. Imagine the work to do all these&its just 1/20th of my work,supplies,store runs,carrying it,etc☆fail 7 times get up 8♡lol

What would you do with $25,000?

I have to walk 6miles to work. I would get a vehicle & my own apartment. It would greatly help my situation. I have just over a year sober. I worked hard for this sobriety & my art. Only god can judge♡I have 1,000+paintings. Not easy. I need a vehicle & a place. To create still, says alot. My art is the best♡Look at my work & go from there.
