Each work I create is my love for a story in a natural scene. My process is a painterly collage with inflection of my personal style.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Colorful, detail-filled representational acrylic paintings of realistic and unrealistic characters or animal life in landscape settings. Shadows and light are painted into shapes rather than the traditional blending of color with a great sense of movement in the overall image.
Where do you find inspiration?Sometimes my inspiration comes from current social media subjects or from natural environments. I have an insane draw to texture in trees, chipped paint, waves, and humor.
What would you do with $25,000?Boy, I'd like to be that person who would say I'd donate it to a worthy cause, but I'm afraid at my age, I'm the worthy cause. I would love to visit Italy and Ireland...see the Crosses in Lithuania.
