I love creating art cause it’s expressive. I love the abstract ability to create something that there is no mistakes in art. It’s a passion.

I am particularly fascinated with abstract art since there is no way that I could go wrong while making my creation. Abstract art does not have mistakes. Whatever you do, whatever lines you draw, whatever colors you choose, and whatever shapes you make, they all become a part of the painting. This type of art is like an image of reality wherein everything is perfect in it’s imperfections.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in life itself; through living things, history, and the depth of different cultures. There’s something powerful about understanding where art comes from and the stories behind it. Every culture, every time period, carries its own voice, and I’m drawn to that.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in my future. That opportunity would give me leeway to invest in my family that I’m building and in my art.
