Creating art fills my soul, turning emotion, colour, and imagination into something meaningful I can share with others.
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 creating expressive acrylic paintings inspired by emotion, texture, light and storytelling - from florals and landscapes to animals, abstracts and rustic scenes.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in colours, emotion, nature, and sometimes photographs that spark an idea, mood, or feeling I want to bring to life through paint.
What would you do with $25,000?I'dl likely divide it between practical needs and meaningful experiences - helping my boys, home renovations, a reliable vehicle, and perhaps finally taking a dream trip to Spain or Portugal for inspiration and adventure
