I like to use acrylic paints to convey a message of hope through putting together 12” X 12” canvas with a heart in each canvas. These images often use interpretations of things that can convey things such as hope, life, and rebirth.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the struggles my wife has with her rare diseases as well as do many others dealing with rare diseases. Inspiration also comes from the joy and hope so many have gotten by receiving these works.
What would you do with $25,000?If I were to win the $25,000 I would donate at least half to our nonprofit and use the other half to pay off some of my wife's medical bills and look into having a web page built that showcased my art as well as buy materials to assemble some large works.
