What is your favorite type of art to create?

I love to create my personality in living color, I love to create the world as it should be seen, and I love to push the boundaries of what is considered beautiful. Time is everyone’s enemy, yet, everyone’s friend and this composition of life has been the salt and pepper to many people lives. But that still doesn’t stop time, my uncle is an artist and he used to draw on his letters home my favorite was Winnie the Pooh to the question my favorite art to create is truth.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration from hardship, pain, and memories these were necessary to find truth as these three qualities will never dry out as we live in a dark world. There’s much injustice, crime, neglect, and even negative influences for the rising generations to come. Bit I did not become who I am today by only appreciating flowers and waterfalls. I embraced dark alleys, abandoned buildings, and dark forests even. There is inspiration and prosperity in everything we do.

What would you do with $25,000?

I’m a struggling artist so I would pay some bills and buy some materials but I would use the money to feed the homeless, I have been using my own funds personally already I can’t feed many people but for those that I can give to I try because I know what it feels like to be driven past and forgotten. When I was young my mom would pick up this homeless man named Darrell whenever she saw him she gave him a ride and bought him food and that was a big inspiration for me.
