I love to create art because it comforts me and helps me get through the hard days. Art has been a big part of my life since I was a child.

At the moment I am working on a papermache statue. A clicker from the last of us. I would've added photos but it is nowhere near done. Also a fan of sketching and acrylic paints
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere. I am a fan of dark art. Horror movies and cartoons are my go-to. I think a lot and can visualize in detail. Utilizing memories, books, even emotions of course. Art is freeing and cathartic. Something I never had in my home life.
What would you do with $25,000?I would open a first home investment savings account, and I would get a dog because I've always wanted to help a rescue. With this money I could also start a new life somewhere, I could get new inspiration, and just be happy. Maybe it'll help me one day build myself a family.
