So I can put the talent God has given me to spread His word. It is my passion and my goal. To also show every artist that it’s possible.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Portraits with charcoal or pastel.
Where do you find inspiration?I get most of my inspiration from people and emotion. When I draw portraits, I’m not just trying to capture what someone looks like, but what they’re feeling or representing. For my faith-based work, a lot of it comes from scripture and trying to visually communicate moments of truth from the Bible in a way anyone can connect with.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I’d prioritize growing my art and business, investing in higher-quality production, expanding my print offerings, and increasing marketing to reach more people. A portion would also go toward giving back through charity. My goal isn’t just to increase sales, but to spread Christ through art to a wider audience and build something sustainable long-term.
