Hi. I love to create art because it's a release of sorts. Art is also a piece of who I am inside. Something to leave behind.
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 dark art. Since childhood I have been drawn to dark art. I see no evil in darkness. All evils are human. But I also like to draw cartoons.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in dreams, music, Nature, feelings, moods, emotions, thoughts, every day life really.
What would you do with $25,000?I don't have a computer right now. With $25,000 I will buy a much needed desktop computer, and a Macbook Pro Maxx to accompany my ipad and pay off my credit cards and I will take my car in for the service it needs. I'd also update my wardrobe and finally get me a pair of good boots (not cowboy boots haha).
