Art is my life and it’s all that I have. There it nothing else I have found enjoyable in life that isn’t self destructive except creating.

I like to observe nature around me throughout the walk of a day or through interacting with people. I then paint abstract emotions using the form of branching patterns in human social interaction and the growth of nature. I use colors and patterns to interact with the environment and space of the canvas. Because I can create virtually anything, I can apply this idea into 2d/3d sculptures as well as graphic design and other mediums that involve getting my hands on the project.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from the patterns of human language, social constructs, patterns in nature and the spark of human disturbance from a continuous earthly world that functions without the need of human interaction.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest this money to build a stable career with my art, find people to connect with in manhattan and continue making the art I love to prove to others that the world will never run out of creativity for the soul to find for the earthly mind.
