Where do you find inspiration?I have spent most of my life creating my soul on canvas…that is how i have always painted from within. That thing called a God given talent. I have always felt there was a higher power when I am painting like it really isn’t me pushing that brush, like the soul being guided, like a gift I am being told to create… Am I the people’s artist? Well yes I guess I am… Never knowing what you are going to create…just hoping to touch and inspire. Putting yourself on canvas for all to see.
What would you do with $25,000?I would go to the grocery store and buy food enough for a month. Catch up on some of my bills, get my van fixed… Take some money out to make sure my old English sheepdog Spartacus is healthy and up to date…get some much needed art supplies, set myself up with the equipment to do on line painting video’s SS and small pension does not take you very far…this money would be life changing…
