Because it feels like a personal connection with divinity. To bring beauty and meaning to life. To make magic
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Visual art. Especially paintings. Acrylic, oil (I probably like oil painting the most), aerosol. Fine art, portraits, mandalas, fantastic and mystical scenery. Sunrises and sunsets. Murals. Visionary art that has a focus on the light, inner spirit realms, god, unity and love.
Where do you find inspiration?At first, it was mystical/spiritual experience that cracked me open to creativity and vision. What keeps me going is that it feels like a sustenance for my soul. Much like breathing brings life force into my body. If I stopped breathing, I’d pass out or die. I feel like part of my soul would die if I stopped painting. I hope for my paintings to be a balm for the souls of others and an inspiration for their lives. Life is worth living. And it’s soo magical
What would you do with $25,000?$25,000 could be a substantial stepping stone for my life. I would take a little time to vision into the highest use for it. First ideas are to reinvest into myself via supplies, continued education in painting workshops from my favorite professional painters. I could kick off a business by getting an LLC and perhaps a talent or business manager. I’d vision and meditate about any big scale painting ideas I’ve been sitting on, waiting for the right moment.
