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 making art using colored pencils as my main medium as well as using my art to provide inspiration and insight to the deeper meaning of the art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find a lot of inspiration in creating art that feels like you’re looking at a photograph and I’ve spent most of my artist career working on this skill. I don’t usually have a set concept of what I’m drawing, it usually comes from certain events, situations, or random ideas that come up.
What would you do with $25,000?Pay off a lot of bills and go for a sunny vacation.
