I tell stories people have forgotten. History, people's pets and love. We as artists are story tellers. I love to paint haunting heros.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Two types, both realizum, history, untold stories of heros who did amazing things for humanity, and pets we have lost, memorial.
Where do you find inspiration?History, to pay it forward, Heros, ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. They should never be forgotten. Stories and places of history and time, people at thier most honorable. And our pets, love at its highest point and it's lowest cost, our interaction with animals we let in our lives and have lost, this is personal and should also be memorable. I find inspiration in the human condition and it's outcome. Change comes at a cost, I show you the price tag.
What would you do with $25,000?Live like and artist, create so much more, pursue exposure, it usually costs as well. Make my daughters proud at what thier father can do, and move people with emotional paintings. Buy supplies, get better brushes, set up a pop up booth, take time and travel to speek to the curators about displaying in thier gallery, and lastly, publish a book of my work, for everyone to enjoy, now and in the future. My work should live pass me.
