โI'm inspired by the lighter side of life. Through trying times, I've found myself coping through art and through creating things that made me happier. Brighter subjects that brought me back to life. Now, through my work I hope to be able to do that for others. I want the viewer to feel the movement, energy, and life coming from the artwork. I want my art to force people to smile again.We all need a little sweetness. A pick-me-up when the world gets too heavy. We can't be serious all the time. โโ Natasha Wescoat.
