Creating is my way of expressing what I feel without having to use words. Not making art would be the death of me

I enjoy making surrealistic and collage style portraits or figures in acrylics or oils. Making art that expresses my thoughts with metaphors are my favorite to do
Where do you find inspiration?The people and experiences around me motivate me to create. I especially love expressions on people’s faces, everyone looks so different and unique. Especially when they are expressing strong emotions.
What would you do with $25,000?I would put it into my art beyond that, I haven’t considered having that kind of money so I don’t really know lol. But I’m doing this because I believe showing interest in real art and creators is what will make a difference to make a place for us artists.
