I have always been compelled to create. As a child, I drew and painted very often, I view my works as an interpretation of my life.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite type of art to create are charcoal drawings, a close second is acrylic paint, but I recently finished a beginners charcoal class, (I’m an art major at the college of southern Nevada) and I was highly inspired by the kinds of techniques I learned, this inspired me enough to start my own business selling Legacy Portraits!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my family, not just because I’ve created portraits of everyone but because they are always in my ear telling me my true potential, giving me new ideas and advice, and just being the beautiful people they are inspires me to create art of the same beauty.
What would you do with $25,000?With 25,000$ I would help my family. Pay off the mortgage and student loans, and secure my family in the best way possible, I would also invest this money in my own business or something I know for sure would provide longevity and make even more money.
