I create art because I love pushing myself out of my comfort zone with new mediums. I also love creating things that other people can enjoy.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love to paint. My main mediums I use are acrylic and tempera. Tempera by far is my favorite because I love how flat the colors are and how I can create solid contrasts in shadows and highlights. But, I also enjoy stippling with pens if I really feel like challenging myself.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my local animals and the countryside I live in. I really enjoy creating paleoart featuring dinosaurs! Dinosaurs have been a life long interest of mine and I enjoy being able to create art of them!
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000 I would use it to put a down payment on a house. Currently my husband and I live in an apartment and we have outgrown it and would like to buy a house where we can have space to do the things we enjoy and start a family!
