You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Energetic, flowing, moving,colorful abstracts that represent my outlook
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from watching the special needs youth/adults I help create art. Theyre self expression and freedom motivates me to use my own dissability(different ability) to express my energy and hope for recovery. I see how proud the special needs folks are of their art and how it heals. Jackson Pollocks "Drip" abstract has the spirit and exuberance I admire He was also Bi Polar. Its truely a creative ecosystem of mutual inspiration
What would you do with $25,000?I would donate too the organization I work for Northern Suburban Special Recreation Association to provide scholarships to needy families that have special needs youth and adults who could benefit from enrolling their loved ones in our art and recreation programs
