I love to create art because it’s always been my outlet to escape my reality since a child. Growing up was an unpredictable chaotic mess.
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 using charcoal and graphite to capture realism mostly portraits. Watercolor have also been something I’ve been practicing. Being able capture someone in a portrait is a challenge and a blessing when I see people’s face light up with joy , amazement, and even happy tears.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration is that I was gifted in life with this talent and without I wouldn’t have survived a lot of unfortunate events in life. It’s always taken me to my own world and away from negativity and chaos.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I’d fix my credit and be able to afford to get my license back , fix my car and have full insurance on it. I’d also pay a lean that has been put on a loved ones home. Invest in trade school and BUY ALL THE NEW ART SUPPLIES!!!
