To be able to create art is freeing. To be able to unload your thoughts and feelings. To show a unique perspective that everyone understands
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Painting, drawing, creating and making 3D art. Anything and everything that I can learn. The type of art that is understood by all, regardless of language and cultural differences. We are all the same; each of our experiences are unique, yet we can each understand love, happiness and pain.
Where do you find inspiration?I have been creative ever since I was younger. However, I had my daughter young as well. I have either made selfish mistakes or have taken the role of a single mother working two jobs. With the help of my mother, I was able to raise a wonderful daughter. Now, I am in my era of self discovery and to create my own path to happiness. I have not allowed myself to dream until my 30s. I love to be creative, it is spiritually invigorating. I will work towards my dream, teaching myself its okay to dream
What would you do with $25,000?I would utilize it to buy the equipment I need to set up my own pop up stand and stock on materials and get my online website going. Save the rest for my daughter's future.
