I love creating art because it’s been a part of my life as far as I can remember. I also used to look up to my late tio, an amazing artist.
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 creating a lot of different style pieces; from colorful and cartoony designs to dark, textured sculptures.
Where do you find inspiration?I find looking at other artist work is a great way to find inspiration. I look up to a lot of artist; most notable, My Tio Beto, my Mentor J Gomez, my Cousin Adrian, and my Father Jab. Other than other artist work I also love to read about cultural history (azteca) and that definitely gets the creative juices flowing for me.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d like to use some of the money for an artist budget so I can create more without having to worry so much about material prices. Most of the money would likely get saved up incase me or my family ever need it in an emergency. My cats would also love a new cat tree…
