What is your favorite type of art to create?

lol, currently, driftwood art. It’s similar to my signature designs style. Used in multiple forms of media. Natural. It’s rooted in the flow. The kinks, the sprints, the paths of life. The imperfections are symmetric but imperfect. Beauty centered in the natural world. A reconstruction of the flow of life. A reminder of what we are losing. A reminder of our connection to this earth. A reminder of why we need to keep fighting, to save this planet. And the beauty all around us.

Where do you find inspiration?

Everywhere.

What would you do with $25,000?

I honestly have no idea. I’ve been struggling for the entirety of my life. I’d like to be able to help. To buy a huge patch of land and leave it to its natural environment. Its natural inhabitants that depend on it. A place where access is available for all of them. To give voice to all those that cannot Speak for themselves. Or maybe just help those less fortunate. A few of them at least. My body is broken but I can create movement with my art.
