My art explores the shadow side of human experience. Sits at the intersection of protest and person expression using imagery that’s honest.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Oil paintings, mostly realism in landscapes, hands, even disturbing art that comforts. “Art that comforts the disturbed, and disturbs the comfortable”
Where do you find inspiration?Typically from other artists.Seeing that even though we all are people, there are so many perspectives of art. Even techniques of art that studying builds a drive and inspiration. I like to ask artists who have studios, or even pop up artists what inspires them to create.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d start a small company, sell originals, prints, even give back to the community such as children’s art supplies. Teaching them that just because you are young, or new, doesn’t mean you can’t be big one day. Go after what you dream.
