It is my form of self-expression. Art helps me understand the world better and see beauty in everything. Fosters a connection with myself.

Graphite art and realism. I love using the technique of shading to capture how we see things. The dark and light shadows create depth. Black and white pieces make the art timeless. The audience is able to connect to it on a deeper level because it captures how they see things in reality.
Where do you find inspiration?Connecting with nature. Being more mindful of patterns of life and slowing down. Visiting museums and taking long walks. Taking random pictures and reflecting on personal experiences.
What would you do with $25,000?Support my family.
