I love creating art because it lets my soul speak through nature.Turning spirit, healing, and universal love into something we can feel.
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 art is whatever I’m called to create in the moment. I move between nature-based jewelry, handmade earth pigments, pen flow drawings, and working with mushrooms!! Painting with them, on them, and weaving them into my art. Each piece is guided by intuition rather than rules, keeping me connected to nature, self, and the creative process.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in nature, especially while foraging and spending time with the land. It also comes from my own healing journey and the quiet moments where I can listen inward. When I slow down and listen, inspiration tends to find me rather than the other way around.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest the $25,000 into building a healing art retreat that blends creativity, nature, and personal transformation. My vision is to offer a space where people can step away from the noise, reconnect with themselves, and use art as a tool for healing, expression, and deeper self-understanding.
