I create art because I grew up around my Dad’s art. I create art to connect with myself and to connect with everyone else🙏🏻❤🙂
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 to create is abstract geometric art composed of color and shape symbolism that focuses on everything from Mother Nature to human nature.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in color, in people, in nature, in the arts, in everyday life, in sociopolitical matters, in animals, in my family, in objects, in shapes, in emotions, in spirituality, and in all the positive and negative aspects of life.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000 I would take care of my debts and develop my art business, repay my family for everything they’ve done for me as much as I can, and maybe travel a bit, thus opening my world up to meeting more people, and seeing and making more art.
