I mostly love sketching with pencil and ink because it was what I used to get me started in drawing when I was in my first year of middle school. I also do a bit of landscape painting such as nightskies,and fall weathered themed scenerios with arcrylic paint though I wished I had enough money to afford oil paint and have a ventilation system,I always wanted to paint something with that kind of paint.
Where do you find inspiration?Most of my landscape paintings are inspired by Jay Lee who paints landscapes and post his artwork on YouTube and how he uses different things such as sponges,forks,cotton swabs and so on, to make his art work which motivated me and taught me that I don't have to limit myself with just using a brush to paint. And as for my sketchings I just draw whatever that catches my eye or think that is a challenge.
What would you do with $25,000?I would buy more art supplies and fabrics because I do want to start working on making my own clothing style.I would also use the money to go to Japan because I always wanted to go there since middle school and get to paint a scene from there for memories. If there was any more left I don't know what I'll do with it I'd most likely buy a Rottweiler for my dad since he always wanted one but didn't have much money for it.
