Art is the ability of creating something out of nothing. I want to create something that captures a smile, a moment, an inspiration.

I love to create moments of life. Portraits are special but pictures of people in life moments, it captures that moment and feelings within it. Whether it’s my grandfather holding my newborn cousin, or my boyfriend enjoying a gentle ride on his bike in the day. A sculpture of a bird coming back from an afternoon flight. I love creating moments.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the people around me. Similar to how Monet finds the impressionistic colors in nature, I feel the emotions in the moments and want to put forth that much emotion in my work.
What would you do with $25,000?Whether or not I win it’s not going to stop my goal of creating animation and media that connects to people. If I win I won’t use the money to further my studio, I’m using it to help my family first. It will be my lottery.
