I like to create art because it allows me to express feelings and ideas that are hard to put into words, and connect to others.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Oil Painting is my favorite form of art to create because of its richnes. I love how the paint moves and blends so smoothly, allowing me to build layers, textures, and subtle transitions over time. The slow drying process gives me the freedom to adjust, refine, and really get lost in the work without feeling rushed. There’s something timeless and almost magical about oils, the way colors glow and develop, that makes the entire experience feel immersive and deeply satisfying.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in everyday moments, emotions, and the things I naturally gravitate toward
What would you do with $25,000?I would finally be able to get a place where i can continue my art without taking over my family’s living room
