All children are creative; I simply never stopped. Horses and the Old West are my passions but I also enjoy pet portraiture. I have a knack.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Western art and pet portraits.
Where do you find inspiration?Traditional artists like Frederick Remington and Charlie Russell, and contemporary artists like Shalese Sands and Andy Thomas. Also through the images I create in my head while writing my Western novels.
What would you do with $25,000?I would set it aside as a nest egg. It would be nice to have money available to support my art, my writing, and my horses.
