I create art to interpret feelings through my visuals. I like to have people feel on the edge when they see my art.

My favorite type of art creates an emotional connection with the audience. I draw and paint figures and obscure characters that help interpret a story. My work often reflects scenarios that develop from tragedy to beauty, allowing viewers to explore emotion, imagination, and personal meaning through each piece.
Where do you find inspiration?Movies, movies, movies! I was first inspired and intrigued by the films of Tim Burton, especially The Nightmare Before Christmas and Edward Scissorhands. As a teenager, I developed a deep passion for filmmaking and became fascinated with how films could create such emotional and unforgettable worlds. I dreamed of becoming like Tim Burton, James Cameron, or Steven Spielberg. That dream has never left me. My art does not stop moving for me! it feels just like a movie.
What would you do with $25,000?I would start an organization that can provide art therapy to children and elderly people. Who suffer from mental health.
