My art is a form of meditation. I never know what a piece is going to be until it's finished.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I prefer pen and ink drawings with embellishments of spray paint, acrylic and water color. I never really know until it's finished, it usually is towards the darker or fantastical creatures and monsters.
Where do you find inspiration?Everyday life I find is usually the best inspiration. I find that urban legends, scary stories and the unexplained phenomenon have more of an intriguing quality then most things.
What would you do with $25,000?More and better art supplies, some actual classes as I am primarily self taught. A new to me car to replace my current somewhat unreliable one, and invest the remainder.
