My favourite type of art to create is mind bending and blended. Out of the ordinary with precise attention to detail. My mind moves so fast and all my ideas usually have a deeper mystery behind them. Sometimes I don’t even know how it came to be or what it means and it sounds so strange but my favourite kind of art to create keeps me guessing in flow and feels like an emotional release when it’s done
Where do you find inspiration?I find most of my inspiration from animals and nature. Humans are a true and perfectly imperfect reflection of all that nature is, yet we’re the most disconnected from it that we’ve ever been. Seeing the synchronicity of shape and shade is where I believe so many of our ideas come from. It’s just a matter of being comfortable and aware enough that we see it and accept it.
What would you do with $25,000?I would create a home on wheels and travel around doing art therapy. Inviting people to create combinations of words and collections of arts to give what they’ve been through a place to exist outside of themselves. Practicing yoga, breathwork and meditation and brought forward some great creation and liberation for me. I wish to gift that to others.
