Art has always been a way to release what has been inside of me. I have trouble expressing how I feel, and this art is the way I can.

I try not to bound myself to one specific art style. But if i did have to choose it would me a mixture of Digital Expressionism and Abstract Portraiture.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration through either my own or others raw or hidden emotion. Once I catch a glimpse of what needs to be released, I do my best to try to make it come alive.
What would you do with $25,000?I would give my children a day to remember. Where we don't have to worry about tomorrow. All smiles, all glee. Something that they deserve.
