What is your favorite type of art to create?

It depends on the subject, some commands detail, some allows free flowing thoughts to reach the canvas, and some is divinely inspired, the latter is my most favorite to work in!!!

Where do you find inspiration?

I find it in the faces of street people, I find it watching a football game, gazing at architecture,,, my heavenly father brings the best inspiration to me. I am still trying to master the visions he shows me.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would pack move to where my boyfriend lives, waited 50 years to be with, and I would build an art shop to work in to finally start my art career at 66. It’s been my life long dream, had to care for my children first. Lots of barriers along the way.💛
