If you asked me what inspires me, the truth would honestly be "I don't know", I know that everyone loves to connect to a story but to me, I don't have a story I have an imagination. Now granted, I do take inspiration from others, but I always think "How can I make mine different from the next person?" As I grew as a painter and as an artist, I wanted to steer clear of just copying what I see and incorporating my own thoughts and ideas. Not that copying is wrong, imitation is a form of flattery, but I wanted to express my creativity and let myself show in each piece. Some paintings and inspired by different interactions, others are inspired by color, what I like, or just what I see.
Fun fact: I use to stick to graphite drawings and refused to use any sort of color. I was afraid of messing up my "perfect" sketch. However, once I started painting in 2022, I started to fall in love with the messiness, the lack of perfection, and the color that I was so afraid to utilize in the past. I'm really happy that I stepped out of my comfort zone and I love that I get to share it with you all. Below are a few examples of my work I've done in the past, hopefully something catches your eye and brings a smile to your face.
