I create art to keep me grounded and helps me think outside of my normal day to day routine. it’s motivation for me to keep going.

My favorite type of art to create is painting. Oil, watercolor, acrylic.. any medium. I feel calm and safe when i put color on a canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration with other people’s art. Music, other artists… it inspires me to open my mind and try new things. i am very comfortable with finding inspiration with my surroundings and staying grounded.
What would you do with $25,000?I am thinking of investing it in my education, and funding for my art. Also treat my family to a trip to the beach and go to the aquarium would be nice. Mainly I want to invest it in future works so I can keep creating and stay motivated.
