Portrait of people who continue to inspire others despite of difficulties in life. I like to put them in a beautiful nature background.
Where do you find inspiration?The stories that people tell about their lives. When I see people struggling to find their way and never gives up, keep moving forward. Sometimes human beings can be glorious despite of their struggles. I love painting their stories without telling them in words. I look for inspiration in the people every single day.
What would you do with $25,000?I will find an art studio. I want to continuously expand my art horizon, such as writing songs and making clothes. I will buy a new sawing machine. I will interview artists of all kinds and start a YouTube channel.
