Trina Ortman

I enjoy photography. Put simply, a photo will never be able to capture the in-between mixture of subtle life... But it can try.

What is your favorite type of art to create?

I enjoy scenery and nature, with whimsical portrait photography. I also enjoy lyric writing, and while this is another form or art, I'd say it may not necessarily apply to this event.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in the beauty of the nuance around me. Those subtle moments, like when you're walking home late, or early morning. You're phone is dead, but you look up, and all of a sudden, there is the largest amount of stars you've ever seen. And you simply have to stop and marvel for a moment, because you're unsure if you'll ever see anything like it again.

What would you do with $25,000?

$25,000 for me would be put immediately towards my college fund. I desire to pursue Psychology and Criminal Justice, and potentially dable in consciousness studies, when I am able to.
