Art is how I make sense of what I feel when words fail. It’s messy, honest, and mine—a quiet way of saying I was here and this mattered.

I’m a self taught artist and I love drawing my favorite cartoon characters and adding my special creative touch to them, also I’m teaching myself how to paint and expanding my creative abilities.
Where do you find inspiration?Something that I realized is that if I create when I feel inspired I will create little, so I’ve set a routine and acted on my ideas. I call it discipline. Because inspiration often shows up after you start working, not before.
What would you do with $25,000?I will use that money to continue pouring into charities I give back to and to my small businesses.
