Art is a therapy for me. I want my emotions and how I see things to show through my work. I like to paint light and moments of hope/tension
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I like to paint in soft pastels the most, and sometimes charcoal. I paint the sky and moments where light is breaking through darkness most often. I also like to paint celestial events and storms. Something where an event is taking place.
Where do you find inspiration?I have had a lot of mental health struggles in the past. It helps me to paint moments of tension or change, often where light is finding its way through somehow. It’s symbolic for me.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to pay for some upcoming medical bills and some more pastels and supplies.
