What is your favorite type of art to create?

I primarily enjoy painting acrylic on canvas, but I often use my paintings for mixed media projects where I will photograph them so I can use them for digital artworks period which I often use for making visuals that are reacted to music. But I do truly enjoy painting the most

Where do you find inspiration?

I find my inspiration in those place in between reality and illusion. Somewhere between light and the absence of. I find it in the weird wiggles and wobbles. The motions of the mixings of the cosmos , the clouds and tidal forces. I also find inspiration in symmetries , repeating patterns and the spiraling out of fractals.

What would you do with $25,000?

I truly don’t know what I would do. If I actually won the money. There’s a lot of different things. I could think of a few people I’d like to help out if I could. $25,000 huge help actually allowing me to really start moving in the right direction of becoming an independent business owner snd selling my art full time
