Art is my way of escaping reality. I love to create art that I can put all of my emotions into without fully explaining them to the viewer.

My favorite type of art to create as of right now is realism. I have been focusing on paying closer attention to detail and putting my own twist on how things look through my own eyes but still giving realistic characteristics.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration through the world around me. This can be through a space that I am in, an image that I see, music, thoughts, and emotions.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000, I would use it towards helping kickstart more art programs throughout my community and buying supplies. As an art educator, I have a passion for showing children how to be creative, and I would love to expand that further than just my little school district I teach at.
