I love getting into a trance like state and free drawing. I enjoy this the most because I get to analyze myself and my emotions through the drawing once it is completed. Every time I do this I learn more about myself, society and humanity as a whole. It is like zooming in on a fractal just to see a more clear version of the whole. Connecting with myself like this is an alchemical process that provides me with a sense of meaning that nothing else in this lifetime has afforded me.
Where do you find inspiration?Most of my inspiration is found in the mystical magical source of human emotion and how that relates to the reality we find ourselves experiencing. I paint/draw the emotions however the creation is a symbol of what those emotions feel like. Which is very different from painting an expression that symbolizes the emotion.
What would you do with $25,000?$25,000.00 would cover my rent expenses for about a year. I would pay my bills for one year and focus on making art as a full time career.
