I love create art because it carries presence. It has the power to calm, to awaken, and invigorating. Art is energy.

It’s honestly hard for me to pick a favorite way to create. I love the feel of clay in my hands with pottery, the way a camera catches a quiet moment, and how dancing lets me turn a feeling into movement. But there’s something special about conceptual painting that really pulls me in. It’s where i get to truly dwell in the "building" of a piece. When i start feeling out a new concept, it’s like I’m transported—it takes me to this whole other realm where the idea starts to come alive.
Where do you find inspiration?Honestly, inspiration can be a bit of a mystery; it can shows up out of nowhere, like a surprise. And then there are those times it decides to take a little holiday and leave me waiting! Or it ghosted me like playing hard to get. It sounds funny, i know, but that unpredictable spark is exactly what makes me so happy to create.
What would you do with $25,000?I do not have a workspace. As an artist, i wish to own a secure and safe workspace. A place where i can feel at peace and become my sanctuary in creating art. I wish from there, to create art business and slowly but surely to build something meaningful. From there i wish also in the future to have the capability to share more blessings to others. To be honest, if i win the $25,000 it would be such a great blessing. As an artist, it truly means everything to me.
