I typically enjoy creating abstract expressionist portraits. I find the spontaneity and depth you can depict through such art to be profound.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my own life’s turmoils and stories. I find technical inspiration from Egon Schiele, Basquiat, de Kooning, and Van Gogh. I draw ideological inspiration from Mark Rothko in particular.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use half of it to live my dream of traveling and photographing Europe. the other half I would put away in an investment account for a rainy day.
