I've just had a passion for embracing making art and having that build up and release. I find I love it, or that I should come back later.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!

Receive Text UpdatesI am pretty straightforward visual arts, graphic design was a big impression on me in high school. I have never been the best kept in practice or by my end result, smudging and thick lines aren't usually enough to prompt me to a fresh paper, and things have definitely been overwhelming at times been jarring. Patience is just a theory; I've tried, some lucky things happened. Ya got to move along. Definitely my ladybug set, the recovered butterflies, the beach sand picture, just Jim Morrison, lol
Where do you find inspiration?Funny things if I can help it, but more purely what I find interesting about something is what I usually bring into focus. Can be a moment, a angle, a sought-after pursuit, a coincidence, lots of just "yay I had my phone an camera when" moments . And definitely when I made pictures of my art! One of life's most serene privileges is having a battery charged when I get something finished and want proof before I never see it again (yay!).
What would you do with $25,000?I would happily put something down on a house, move out of the apartment, and pay towards my wife and I's two Jeep Renegades. I am the the undisputed most surprised of us all. Lots of folks on here, I'm sure lots of impressive people and their work. If I do well, I'm going to need to find my eyebrows, because they will have flewn from my forehead.
