I create art to cope with life. I draw fish to relax and enjoy something beautiful. Something to smile at...
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love to draw fish. Fish are so beautiful and relaxing to look at. Angler fish are my favorite fish and I like to give them different lures like microphones disco balls and lightning balls. I also draw birds but cartoon type fish are my #1.
Where do you find inspiration?I started drawing to make a bad day good and a stressful day relaxing. I find fish to be the most calming and quiet and beautiful things to look at. So when I add funny faces and features to them they totally hit all my pleasure points and they make people smile.
What would you do with $25,000?I have never had that much all at once. I would award myself somehow and hold on to most of it until its needed. Thinking about it is overwhelming because so much could be done. I wouldn't waste it. I would make sure that what I spent it on had purpose or need.
