There was a quote that I heard somewhere once, that says “art is where you lose yourself and you find yourself at the same time.”

I create big vibrant hyper realistic portrait art pieces, of animals, food and people. I like the challenge of recreating a more vibrant interpretation of reality.
Where do you find inspiration?I find that most artists create art for themselves because they can’t stop creating… I find my motivation to be people. I really enjoy when people look at my art and they can only say “WOW” to me that is a major accomplishment and incredibly fulfilling. This is how I know I completed my pieces.
What would you do with $25,000?Help my family start their own business so they don’t have to work for anyone else anymore and so we can spend more time together as a family and donate money to the church that has brought us closer together.
