Creating art is my passion and savior. I suffered a stroke at the age of 14 and switched hands. Without art i wouldn't be here.

Watercolor because its fluidity and clam nature. Quick to clean up and difficult to do well. Watercolor has a complexity like no other due to its drying time and its unforgiving. I love it because it teaches me how to slow down, think and execute my ideas thoroughly. I specifically like to do watercolor portraits then acrylic. Doing watercolor portraits is harder but the sheer gratification I get from it when i'm done is unmatched.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from what I went through, what i've learned, and what I want to be. When I try to find inspiration, I think of concept art and how amazing i find it to be. I love video games and their concept art, So I can put it in my landscapes and portraits.
What would you do with $25,000?What I would do with the 25,000 invest and open my business teaching people any type of art from traditional painting and drawing to Digital and 3D. Also going into hospitals and teaching Art specifically to disabled people kids and adults. I know how hard it is to I have your life completely turned around. Switching hands from a right handed person to learning how to do everything with your left is extremely challenging and I almost gave up. Art was the reason I kept going and still going.
