Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from dreams and nature. I also browse classic art and sometimes use bits and pieces of poses from Classic Artist from DaVinci and Michelangelo to symbolist like Gustave Moreau.
What would you do with $25,000?I would find a place to live, possibly permanent, that has room for a studio, instead of renting a room week to week.
