I like painting whimsical folk art. The colors are joyful.
Where do you find inspiration?This is more of a mystical relationship for me. I tend to just “feel” like painting a subject. What I discover later is that they always have a message that I need to realize.
What would you do with $25,000?My dream is to create a creative studio for people to escape to. Not just to make art, but also to enjoy nature and live organically. I would love to have a creative oasis to share.
