My passion to create is intoxicating to me, I have to be engaged in creating art. Photography, pottery, fabric art, or in a mixture.

My favorite would be photography. I like to say, photography allows me borrow a moment in time. Not any moment... these are special moments. Now that I have a Tramatic brain injury from a near fatal car crash in 2021, these borrowed moments have allowed me to regain memories lost.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from life around me. I carry my camera with me and capture moments daily. The bee hovering just above the flower she is ready to land for pollen. The ladies sitting in the park having an afternoon chat. The mountain mist rising just as the morning sun peaks through.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000 I would continue creating, purchase 2 lenses, invest in another local artist (I always pay it forward), establish my online presence (e commerce) and build out my local market more.
