I honestly love I mean hard love abstract painting and creating music spoken word in the vein of Gil Scott Heron and bluesman Willie Dixon music moves me while I paint or inspires me to write they both have my heart
Where do you find inspiration?In music beats loops and samples inspire me take me to other worlds in painting it could be a line from a movie it could be a glance of color or a brief interaction with someone who may or may not be family
What would you do with $25,000?Buy paint, canvases art supplies I couldn't afford find a space to paint finally build a small recording studio in my home just to be able to have more freedom to create my goal is to one day be able to create as my full time career not looking to steal moments to feel creative because your exhausted from work because there would be no hangups less stress
