Expressing in paint or graphite is exciting, and at the same time, calming for me I'm a retired Special Ed teacher and art is my new outlet.
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 and appreciate all forms of art. Impressionistic Landscapes, fantasy design, surrealism, are my favorites.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration from nature, the masters like Van Gogh, Renoir, Dali, my own imagination and interpretation of reality.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pursue art lessons to improve my techniques and develop my skills. I taught children for over 50 years, who had social,emotional challenges, that's why I really like this charity. I would probably donate some art supplies to my old class so they could also enjoy art. Art can be very calming and therapeutic not just for kids,but for people of all ages.
