I love creating art for the joy of living in the moment.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I enjoy creating photography, drawings, and acrylic paintings.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspirations in real life and bits of dreams I remember. Many times a painting will start out from a beautiful landscape, flower, sky, or animal I have the chance to take a photo of. Other times I may wake up to scribble down bits of a dream. Then at times I’ll see movies in my mind that I struggle simply to recreate. If I have a feeling inside that won’t go away, I will use art to deal with it abstractly.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the money to overcome my homelessness.
