What is your favorite type of art to create?

My "favorite" type of art to create is subjective and varies widely depending on the series I am working on. I am open and like to explore it all. Abstract Art, Surrealism, Minimalism, Digital Art, Realism & Hyper-realism.

Where do you find inspiration?

Mostly in nature. Actively engaging with the world, drawing from nature, daily life, personal experiences, and the works of other artists. Key sources include observing light and color in nature, visiting museums, exploring digital platforms and exploring personal memories. I believe a true artist is able to see the real magnificent beauty of God's universe wherever they are.

What would you do with $25,000?

Buy Art supplies and help pay my bills. Check out some more of my art: https://richard-laeton.pixels.com/
