Art is part of me, if I'm creating something with my hands, I feel like I contribute to society, making life a bit more beautiful!
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love creating all types of art, whether it's charcoal and graphite, ceramic sculpture, oil paintings or lithography; I love the outlet that I find in creating art.
Where do you find inspiration?I tend to find inspiration in nature, music, multicultural sources (such as the southwestern influence), and I like to immerse myself in the world and the creative process.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won $25,000, I would expand my art studio to include art workshops and travel to the southwest to research the mimbres pottery and create paintings of the desert and pueblos I find there. It is a longstanding dream of mine, and I would love to see that dream come to fruition.
