Art is and has always been apart of me. I create because I don’t have any other choice. It’s the only way I can find all the parts I hide.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I would say figures and faces. I feel like the human form naturally conveys so many emotions and it’s enjoyable to play around with it.
Where do you find inspiration?I wouldn’t say there’s anything in particular that I go to for inspiration. Just being in everyday life, allows different ideas to pop into my head. It’s all just a matter of which one makes it out first.
What would you do with $25,000?If I were to win $25,000, I would move into my own apartment. It would be nice to have the space I need in order to create bigger pieces. I currently paint on the floor in a corner without ever really having privacy. So it would be nice to have that space and see what I can create when I’m truly by myself.
