What is your favorite type of art to create?

Pencil/ink. I try to paint and do shading but im not the best at it. Just gotta keep trying. Poetry being second. Dabbled in pottery and resin. Very fun. I honestly love any type of art its fun to see what people come up with and where they get their inspiration. I tried whittling and id love to try to take a class cuz I used random wood and not the greatest tools! My gpa sharpened the ones I was using and was like these are not great. Which was funny and very nice of him.

Where do you find inspiration?

From any and every emotion. And from everything thats beautiful enough to touch my heart space.

What would you do with $25,000?

I want to do art therapy for older people I have a garage/shop im working to make into a space thats accomodating to that and eventually get into dementia care and incorporate that in. I want to make a diy kiln so small pottery projects can also be used. I have a backroom in the shop and want to do an aquarium room for axolotls, I have baby axolotls right now in my spare bedroom and I think that would be fun and a better set up. I need to get their gnomes/genetics tested so I know lineage.
