I'm a contemporary artist inspired by past/present Canadian art , Impressionism, & use of colour & light. Art is like breathing for me.
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 to create Landscapes, seascapes and urban paintings in a modern impressionist style that is fresh and new and distinctly my own.
Where do you find inspiration?I'm inspired by everything around me and when possible, create en Plein air. I look to my dreams, my understanding of what I see so that I can interpret that which I see through a personal emotional artistic lense.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $25,000 to travel to Asian to help establish en Plein Air groups in places like Taiwan. I would use it as a way to bridge western art tradition and styles with eastern art traditions and style. It would be a creative dialogue across continents.
