I create because I feel destroyed. Art makes me feel human. I feel connected to the world when I make something,and I hope others can enjoy.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I make abstract art. It's all about color and texture. I use aot of found items that others would call garbage. I call it beauty. I also do a lot of line work. I use pointilism a fair bit and create high peaks that are sharp to the touch. If I get an art show, I want people to feel my work physically not just emotionally.
Where do you find inspiration?In nature. In my loved ones. In G-d and the universe. In my own heart and soul. I also get inspired a lot by the artwork of others. I love visiting museums for that reason. I find inspiration in my students, the grass, the trees, the birds and lizards. I get inspired by books and films and with things I see online. I love to watch process videos. I can get inspired by almost anything.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the money to buy art supplies! I need new paints and I've never had enough money for a really big canvas so that would be the majority of the money. I would create a website to sell my work, and I would also get some prints made and create a physical portfolio that I could take around to galleries and try to get my work out there. I'd also like to visit Paris again and see Centre Pompidou once more. It's my favorite museum in the world.
