Life is Art. There’s chaos, emotion, intuition, building just to deconstruct so that you can build again. It’s magic. It’s personal.

I feel drawn to create female narratives. Emotional mixed media paintings that make you feel like you know this person, is what I feel compelled to put on canvas and paper.
Where do you find inspiration?I don’t have to look far to find inspiration. The times we’re living in are highly charged with emotions that stretch across the spectrum. Through tears, smiles, joy, gratitude, fear, anger, and empathy. I am able to connect with others and convey those feelings through my artwork.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $25,000 to further my art endeavors and build on what I have started. I would also donate winnings to help fund children’s art programs.
