Art is a way to show others the better more beautiful world only you can imagine. It helps others see and feel what you can’t express.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I’m still learning to create all kinds of art, but I’ve loved oil painting the most. I like painting people, landscapes, the world in my mind. I’ve always just enjoyed the actual creation process.
Where do you find inspiration?The beauty in the world. If I see something out in the world that deserves to be captured, or a certain spark in people. I’m an empath and I love to show people the things that I am feeling about the world and people in it
What would you do with $25,000?Go to Jamaica, buy materials, help teach kids and anyone in need. Especially after hurricane Melissa, I think there’s a need for art and hope and to teach people how to see beauty. I think me giving just a little bit is a way to start big change.
