My philosphy with creating my artwork is usually; i'll learn whatever i have to to make sure I create it.

I like making portraits and pictures of faces mostly, most of the time I do digital, pencil and paper, or charcoal as my mediums- but I switch to different art forms if it means capturing the face I am trying to draw in just the right way. Though I do really enjoy making characters and creatures of many kinds, I approach designing and illustrating with the same philosophy.
Where do you find inspiration?I pull my inspiration from a lot of places, media I enjoyed growing up and currently enjoy, places and people I know. I usually find a lot of my inspiration is born from concepts found in genres of fantasy and horror though.
What would you do with $25,000?With 25,000 I think I'd have to divide it up, pay off things and put aside a good amount for savings, but also spend/give some to my family as a way to celebrate. I’d also wanna take a trip or two. Might also buy my cat a much better tower. I also know many small businesses and groups that I love supporting that I would love to donate/give money to since I regularly support them.
