I love to create art because it's a form of expression for me. I create various forms of art and use different techniques to do so.
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 definitely fashion. I believe that fashion is an art that you can wear (a form of self expression) and you can create many things just by using your imagination. I create my designs in a digital art app called ibisPaintX; you can use many tools to bring your digital art to life.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from other designers that I admire. Alexander McQueen, Coco Chanel, Elsa Schiaparelli, Donetella Versace and so many more. The brands that I look for the most for inspiration for my designs are Schiaparelli, Balenciaga, Versace, Dior, Gucci, and Dolce & Gabbana. I find inspiration in musical artists such as, Beyonce, Rihanna, and Doja Cat. One of my biggest dreams is being able to design for them one day.
What would you do with $25,000?If I win the $25,000 I'll give some of it to my mom because she sacrificed a lot for my siblings and I to be where we are today. With the remaining funds I want to get my fashion brand trademarked, buy nice quality fabrics and hardware for bags and clothing, fashion mannequins. All of this to bring my dreams of becoming a known fashion designer to life.
