I love to create art, simply for the fact that it’s the only time I feel unchained!
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 types of arts are drawing, photography and music. Drawing started as a kid, sketching concert stages from shows my parents took me to. Then graduated to sketching in my notebook during lectures to stay awake. Photography began after high school, gathering friends and getting the best shots with the city of San Antonio as our back drop. Music, from experiencing my idols, to learning the instruments, every encounter was an escape from reality!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from the small town of Lytle, Tx, where I grew up. As well as the big city of San Antonio, Tx. My love for basketball and the San Antonio Spurs are key contributions to this. Also, I cannot forget about the everyday people who make my world around me beautiful.
What would you do with $25,000?Invest it into my wife’s dog grooming business and my kids future. Also, a Gibson Les Paul would be nice.
