What do you love most about what you do?
What I love most about what I do would be just the experience to be able to create something and express myself to speak with my art to express my thoughts and feelings on canvas and have the sense of accomplishment no matter what happens I can look back and say I created that and did something I love and even if I'm not here anymore my art will be here and continue to speak for me.
