I grew up going to art shows, galleries and museums. That sparked my interest. My art is where I find my peace, myself and have fun.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I create sculpted abstract paintings. Then painted between and over the textures. I use iridescent paints to capture the light and enhance the textures.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from everywhere. It could be a song, a reflection, just about anything at anytime can bring the inspiration to life.
What would you do with $25,000?Good question. So many possible responses to it. Some would be used to help another in need. Some would be set aside for family and if any is left paint supplies for me to keep enjoying what I love doing
