I love to create art because it reminds me of the beautiful things God has created in nature. So love painting animals, and meeting people.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite type of art is mixed media and acrylics. Love mixing different textures and items to tell a story within the image. I also enjoy painting animals and pet portraits and enjoy learning about the pets I’m painting and how loved that pet meant to that family. Love how the portraits brings tears of joy and evokes emotions through art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through nature and of course Pinterest. I Love painting because it makes me happy, it’s therapeutic, and it makes me happy when I teach it and influence others to go out and paint. Like Pablo Picasso once said: “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” So true
What would you do with $25,000?I would get my twin boys their braces, take my family on a cruise vacation and save the rest for their college. My boys also want to pursue the arts but in culinary arts and in music.
