Graphic design pays the bills. Creating in other mediums calms my soul and sets me free!

I’m drawn to both watercolor and mixed media. Watercolor feeds my love of spontaneity and happy accidents, while mixed media lets me layer texture and depth until a piece feels alive. It’s probably my brain’s way of needing both freedom and structure. ?
Where do you find inspiration?I’m inspired by other artists…the emotion, energy, and vibe they bring, but also by turning into what feels right creatively. The more I trust that instinct, the more expressive and authentic my work becomes.
What would you do with $25,000?I would put it toward my child’s college tuition. As a parent of a child with special needs, there was a time when I didn’t know if college would even be possible. This would help turn something uncertain into something real and give him opportunities I once wasn’t sure he’d have.
