I create art because it makes me feel more alive; every part of me feels complete.

I love paintings that have a story behind them. The type of art I enjoy the most are acrylic painting and graphite drawing. I especially love making sketches and being able to create so many things with minimal preparation but still ending up with something beautiful.
Where do you find inspiration?The day to day life and the life story of the people I know. Their experiences, their dreams, their fears, their regrets.
What would you do with $25,000?I can't lie and say that I wouldn't use it to pay off my personal debts or my family's debts. But I would also like to use it to inspire children and young people in my country to create art either by founding an academy or by donating to an existing one.
