I create oil-based paintings on canvas using my imagination. I was inspired by Bob Ross and Vincent Van Gogh. I enjoy creating music too.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My name is Andy. I like to create scenery on my oil-based paintings on canvas using my imagination. I take things that I have seen or would like to see and put that on canvas, using my imagination. Let's take something, for example a mountain or a clear blue sky, I might see it one way but then I imagine what it would look like with Aurora, Something Beautiful in the night sky. Or I'll take a scene, like Mars, and create my own version of it. Thank you!
Where do you find inspiration?Well, I find all kinds of different things inspiring such as the beauty of this gorgeous planet we all live on. I also find the universe inspiring because the universe that we live in is beautiful. I find musicians, artists, actors, etc. - all of it, even fun things like comic books and fantasy - all beautiful because it brings us together and that's what we need in today's world. That's what inspires me and I want to inspire others with a positive impact. That is my goal in life.
What would you do with $25,000?Well, I never saw that type of money before so I don't know what it is like to have 25k but if I end up winning I will do whatever it takes to help others like my family for example my mother who is 72 years old and is still struggling with bills. I want to help others. I will also donate a good portion to charity, the veterans and food bank. I want to help others. I want to inspire others and I will also pay my own bills if I do win. Thank you for this opportunity have a great wonderful day! ?
