I've always really enjoyed the calmness of art. It can express the strongest of emotions or the softest message. Art always felt like home.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I have always really enjoyed creating characters that grab the eye and colorful illustrations that exaggerate feelings. Along with the occasional acrylic painting.
Where do you find inspiration?I like to find my inspiration out in the real world. It could be something as simple at seeing how someone else is expressing themselves through their clothes, or something small and simple like a little bug going about it's day.
What would you do with $25,000?I'd use some of it to fix up my house,so my fiance and I are more comfortable. And some of it to help my family who are struggling. I would like to put at least $4,000 of it into our local scholarship that's in my late grandmother's name.
