I love to create art because it gives me a space to center my energy and feel more at ease. :) thank you for the support given thus far.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Check out my work. my insta is @art.of_ceci Poetry is my main outlet however.. I like to use acrylic paint, watercolor, colored pencil, oil colored pencil, graphite, and charcoal. Occasionally i dabble in digital.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from feelings left invalidated and emotions left unshared. I am a neurodivergent artist. Art is the one outlet i do not have to mask or worry about being confrontational in a problematic way. My inspiration comes from deep rooted trauma, my inner world i dare not share with anyone, the light that was shared with me from others whom have passed away that i hold dearly to my heart. Lastly, my parents. My father always believed in me and my mother always motivated me to continue.
What would you do with $25,000?I would donate to charities that help with: animal rights/sanctuaries, human trafficking victims, and humanitarian aid for those effected by the warzone. After that, i would pay my debts and save the rest for essentials (food,rent, clothes, etc) and emergencies so as to be responsible.
