I make different kinds of art. I draw, paint, and make art with paper. I wanted a way to channel grief, depression, anxiety in positivity.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I enjoy painting, drawing, and creating art with paper. Some of my paper art is quilling. I make keychains, ornaments, bowls, earrings, wall art, candle holders, and vases.
Where do you find inspiration?My mom taught me how to quill. I started doing it again as a way to channel my grief into something positive. She passed away back in 2011 and it has given me something to feel close to her.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the money for a down payment for a house for me and my 4 kids. I'm a single mom and it would help us tremendously.
