I create art because I made an agreement with the universe to be a Channel. I have created art every day for over 25 years.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I am prolific in a wide variety of mediums, acrylic, watercolor, oils, pastels, encaustics, clay, wood, 3d design and printing, linoleum carving, papermaking, sewing, pattern design and drafting, quilling, weaving, rug making, knit and crochet, I am even known to make my own art supplies. I gave up video in all forms as entertainment in 2001, and beauty routines in favor of time to create, explore and learn. Every single thing I do, I taught myself to do it. I am a creative genius.
Where do you find inspiration?In every breath, this world is a beautiful and every breath I take in it is so full of inspiration.
What would you do with $25,000?I'd use it to back starting a installation art gallery where people come to experience art immersively and rediscover the connection between art and science. This seems to be overlooked in our lives currently, but this connection is intimate and vital to our species as we move forward. The money would be used to set up a non profit for the purpose of re-establishing this base energy-matter connection, before we lose it completely.
