What is your favorite type of art to create?

Painting, acrylic and mixed media primarily on canvas. Contemporary abstract with nature or something in the foreground. I love using colors and making a statement.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find a lot of my inspiration in life and also in nature. I take a lot of my own reference photos of wildlife and love getting out in the elements. I like to draw the viewer in and see what story is being told in their head.

What would you do with $25,000?

Wow, I have always wanted to have my own studio so I think some of it would go to that and investing in myself. I have struggled to get my work out into the world but I know its loved by a lot of people. Also maybe buy a trailor so I can store and bring my paintings around with me. My confidence would jump a lot knowing I could finally attempt to make a living with my art, that's a dream.
