What is your favorite type of art to create?

My favorite kind of art to create is stippling, along with pencil and pen and ink. That’s where I feel the most comfortable. But lately, I’ve really been enjoying watercolor too—it’s a new favorite I’m still learning.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in everyday life, just watching people, noticing little things, and how things feel in the moment. I’ve loved to draw for as long as I can remember, since I could first hold a crayon or pencil, and it’s always just been a part of me. Over time it’s become more than just drawing. It’s how I express things I don’t always have words for.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would pay off my car an and pay down some debt. Maybe take a small vacation.
