We live in an art studio, my baby was born inside 6 weeks ago, 5 mins from Indian Rocks Beach, we create art to be free and beautify homes.
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 taking an old beat up piece pf furniture and bringing it life again, to make it beautiful beyond anything else in the market. Something people take home and get to use to store their clothes or eat on top of with their families and company. A reminder of how beautiful life is.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from looking outside, my store is called Oceansky. The Bellair Beach Sunsets, God’s creation is just so amazing. A vast ocean and a sky full of colors, the sun and the moon, the awesomeness of it’s magnitude.
What would you do with $25,000?Buy a small property where I can focus on making art, maybe a down payment to big house where art and growth are the main focus. Where I can employ other artists. Right now I pay $4000 in rent every month. Owning my own property will allow my costs to go down and make more profit to reinvest into the lifestyle. I plan on letting that be the foundation to a coalition of artists to create together and make a living.
