Creating art allows me to express emotion in a way words can’t. Seeing how others react makes the process more meaningful.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Photography. I have had a love of photography since the 1980's when my Father gave me my first lesson. Different angles, close-ups and lighting techniques. Yes that was with the extremely old 35mm cameras when Footman was still developing film in a drive up booth at a local shopping mall. I plan to continue my quest for the best photos, praying AI doesn't take over the beautiful art of photography.
Where do you find inspiration?The beauty of nature is my primary inspiration. Capturing an epic sunrise at the beach or the ability to get the perfect mirror lake image is amazing. Completing my vision returning to the same location to capture the sun setting. If a storm is forecast I am chasing the location to get the epic lightning still photo. Patience is required! Being a pet sitter on the side, I enjoy providing the owners with a portrait as a keepsake, loved by all.
What would you do with $25,000?Start over, be smart, budget.....resolve debts. My dream vacation is to visit Hawaii. Nothing could make me happier than to be able to experience the beauty of the islands, and relax while doing what I love most, snapping everything I see that others don't.
