Creating art is like an open space where I can dream freely and be able to forget my problems for the moment and travel to my dreamland.
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 is watercolor painting, especially animal and human portraits. I find it fascinating to paint portraits because it feels like capturing someone’s existence and story in a moment of time.
Where do you find inspiration?My biggest inspiration comes from the songs I listen to. Their lyrics and rhythm make me imagine characters and scenes flowing around during the music, which inspires the people and animals I paint. I love how one form of art can inspire another.
What would you do with $25,000?Winning this competition would mean so much to me, and I would see this win as a sign to continue improving my art career and creating work that leaves a meaningful mark on the world.
