What is your favorite type of art to create?

Different types, some are just yet to be made :) I enjoy painting Octopuses aliens ufo abstract free spirit weird and mysterious stuff, not sure of favorites, when I have time I take the brush and colors and then something happens I can't always plan what it will be ...sometimes it's just spill of happy colors, others something awakening deep relaxing mysterious to think about I am not a pro yes not yet

Where do you find inspiration?

Inspiration ? mean i need to use my pain :) i am sure it also has expiration date just like me.Daily life and information that I choose from different sources,I guess.Also It's nice to drop something behind from journey that we call life. Mostly my inspiration is being in a present moment and have some fun with brush and paint, it's not always I have such state of mind to create, life sometimes brings other lessons to learn for growth, also so I become better artist, looks like:)

What would you do with $25,000?

Some days of fun with kids, shopping for them, flight tickets, treatment for parent to prolong their lives, cook and share good food with family abroad , give them some for missed bdays , fix my teeth and check myself , fix my car, also pay money that i barrowed and lost to scam...And the rest if it is left is for rent or whatever life throws ahead
