I LOVE art it’s in my minds eye, and blood! While I’m painting I visualize whether to change colors, add texture, or add pieces to collage!
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I started out with acrylic paints, but I got introduced to watercolor, and I found my passion to throw paint, collage, and hand draw figures in black ink to painted backgrounds! Yeah!!
Where do you find inspiration?Living Life! Whether there is visions, people, flowers, movement, crawling creatures, birds flying, horses running, or just a moment of inspired silence!
What would you do with $25,000?Well to be honest, I’ll pay off outstanding debts. Create a proper artist studio. Then travel to New Mexico, Grand Canyon, Mount Shasta, to see more places on my bucket list!! Colorful and Spiritual!! Yeah!
