Art is the only true release of emotion and soul we cannot possibly put into words.
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 using all different kinds of mediums be it oil or acrylics. Although my art isn't just about painting I cook/bake and do photography as well. I love photography as it focuses on capturing beautiful moments. Poetry is fun too! I aim to find art in in everything that I do... Because after all what is life but a beautiful unique experience of one individual and through their eyes. I hope you all enjoy!
Where do you find inspiration?Emotion. What else is there besides emotion for inspiration? Be it love or hate or frustration, if you are an artist, sometimes belting out a song on the guitar or baking, a cake or fine dinner to celebrate enough artistic energy to express what you feel. Beauty is everywhere and all around us. If we slow down enough to be in the moment, we can use the simplest things to inspire us.
What would you do with $25,000?This has been a tough year for my family. A tough couple of years to be honest. While I'm not comfortable sharing the specifics, the $25,000 would be immensely helpful in our recovery. Maybe I might even create my own space for art instead of using my living room.
