Moment I realized I wanted to become an artist.
I didn’t decide to become an artist, but became it as a result of continually imagining a lifestyle.
What I would tell my 20-year-old self.
I'm having fun everyday.
My perfect creative environment.
Place where there is an ocean in front and mountains behind.
Artist, living or dead, I’d most like to share a meal with.
