Creating art heals me on the inside. I believe that it can help us all heal- help us connect with our inner children, our inner spirits.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite type of art to make is physical art! I love creating anything that someone can wear to express themselves, weather it's my uniquely styled tie dye shirts, or my hand wrapped jewelry. I always have been intrigued by others that work with their hands to produce something beautiful.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my family. Having a dream of becoming an artist , and making it into a full on career is something that most growing artists probably struggle with alot. Having the support of my family members while wanting to pursue art is so important. Their love, and their constant words of encouragement have been the most inspiring thing in the whole world.
What would you do with $25,000?I would spend money to open a storefront where I can display and sell my artwork. In this space , I'd love to have other local artists come here to show their own work, and to collaborate. It would be amazing to host workshops, classes, and community events. I also would like to help my family with some financial debt as well.
