Art lets me express feelings and see the world with more clarity. It’s living in the now, not past or future, truly enjoying the present.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Nature art, animal portraits, botanical art, small sculptures, wildlife photography, nature photography, even sewing, knitting, gardening. I want to help people feel better using the environment around them to bring peace of mind and calmness. The world is so vast and beautiful. I never get tired of admiring it and I want others to enjoy as well.
Where do you find inspiration?In the breeze that cools a warm day, the sun kissing new leaves, an innocent animal’s eyes, birds gliding through the sky, insects on my flowers, simply by looking around me. Other times it comes from within: the feeling in my heart, the vivid dreams I so desperately try to picture, bringing back that subtle feeling in hopes of making it real in this world.
What would you do with $25,000?I will use it as a down payment for a home in the countryside, where I can be more in contact with nature, animals, and plants. I came from poverty, grew up on a little farm. Back then I didn’t have the resources to paint or even a camera to register the beauty around me. Living in a more isolated place again will help me find my way back to the joy of living within nature, and with that, no excuses for my creativity.
