I’m a self taught artist who used my art to get away from a past that I created that had me in and out of prison. Now I live my passion!
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 tattooing and drawing, the things I like doing the most are new school and I love doing Scandinavian and Celtic tribal/knotwork which I am able to freehand
Where do you find inspiration?Things I see, experiences, history, randomly I will have ideas just kind of pop into my head that I have to write down so that I can get them out on paper
What would you do with $25,000?I would open my own tattoo shop and put some in savings, as well as getting my non-profit for recovering addicts started, the concept is the longer they are clean they can cash in like a credit for tattoos that are free that start small but can get bigger the longer they remain sober, the logistics of making sure they are clean are putting a pause to it but I want to get it started and the money would help
