I feel like is a release for me to just do whatever I want, and it also give the view a glimpse as to how I see the world.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I primarily focus on painting landscapes and portraits, capturing lighting and human expression with attention to detail, mostly on people of color. In addition, I also create character illustrations in digital art, where I enjoy make my version of iconic characters like Hellboy or Spider-Man.My work blends realism with artistic interpretation, allowing me to express both technical skill and personal vision.
Where do you find inspiration?Mostly on Pinterest, whenever it comes to making character illustration. I use references photos, stylistic tips on drawing body parts, even color theory , just to get the ball rolling. It’s almost like I have a abstraction in my head and Pinterest is like my junkyard to pick certain pieces I like and bring them together.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off as much debt as possible to be able to be that much closer to financial freedom
