Creating will always be my passion. I believe it's what will lead me to do great things, and that's exactly where I want to be.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I don't really have a favorite because I love doing it all. I enjoy painting and working with color the most. I usually start by sketching with pen, and I'll paint on anything to bring it to life. I try every type of art so l can take on whatever comes my way.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in my dad. Art has always been part of who he is, and he passed that to me when he drew Donald Duck and gave me the picture. Seeing his work up close made me want to create too. I knew I wanted to draw just like him.
What would you do with $25,000?l'd share it with my loved ones. Seeing my family's best moments means everything to me. They got me through so much, and without them I wouldn't be making art today. Since l've never been able to give back, l'd use it to cover the bills and rent I missed, help lift some stress, It hurts watching them struggle.
