Reason why I love to create artwork is because it gives me and others an escape from daily life to their own view of what the viewer enjoys!
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 art to create is mainly creating realistic landscapes, mountains and beaches are my main.
Where do you find inspiration?The Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee are my inspiration. Everytime the mountains would always have a different color for an inspirational meaning. Another main inspiration I have is my mom, ever since she told me she was a former graphic designer, artist, this gave me inspiration to keep going!!!!
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000, I would be giving it to my mom, to pay her tuition off to become a teacher! If she told me she had any leftover, I’d tell her to keep the rest to care for my brother to put towards his future or invest!
