It is important for me to create art that helps guide others to view the everyday world around them from a mystical and eternal perspective.

Fine art/conceptual Photography.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from the everyday moment, in what others might pass by as common and what others may not see because they do not take the time to stop and look. So many are ensnared in their everyday life that they often fail to look outside of the box they are trapped in. I also find much inspiration in the work of other artist/photographers such as Bernd and Hilla Becher, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Anselm Kiefer, and Doug and Mike Starn.
What would you do with $25,000?It would be a great help with setting up a more professional studio, to provide a space for exhibiting photography, and to help mentor other aspiring fine art photographers.
