It's the only freedom of internal expression that I can make into visual art for people to hopefully engage with me.

Visually aesthetic, bio-mechanical, actual animal life interaction, that once was a part of existence in this life.
Where do you find inspiration?In life vs death. I find that the inevitable end will never end, and that the end is inevitable. So with that in mind, when I'm out in nature scouting for treasure, when I come up on an an "Antler Shed" or "Dead Head", I want to bring a second life to the animals that succumbed to this journey & to help educate the locals.
What would you do with $25,000?I am deeply moved by Mr. Depp’s encouragement of raw, authentic creative expression through this platform. His vision for The People’s Artist—prioritizing the artist's voice over traditional gatekeepers—resonates with my own journey as a creator. To honor the spirit of this initiative, I would treat this $25,000 award as a foundational seed for my community rather than a one-time windfall. My plan is to establish a dedicated community endowment fund. By carefully investing the prize money.
