Creating art is my life’s purpose. Inspired by Earthly systems of life & their cycles crafting work with a theme: recycle, repurpose, reuse.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I’ve dove head first into the infinite possibilities of the realms of mixed media. It is in these dimensions of pure creativity that I find myself the most free and my favorite way to pursue the passion of building bridges between sculpture and painting. Tearing down the constraints of traditional mediums, merging techniques and processes, paving new paths for creating the art of Today, while laying down an ever evolving blueprint to follow and inspire for the Artists of Tomorrow!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in a balance between the systems of nature & humankind. In the awe of the cycles of Earth’s seasons & her constant changes I draw wisdom & form intent to create. Bewildered by the ways of her children I engage in the inherent inspiration to break artistic boundaries and barriers brought on by society in order to be my best self, a steward to Mother Earth & in turn through my art & the doing of , inspire my fellow brothers & sisters to bring about the same within themselves.
What would you do with $25,000?I would immediately seek tthe counsel of individuals with particular knowledge that would help me to invest my newly won windfall of $25,000 in a plan that would put me on a path of economic sustainability so that I was able to work on my art full time unencumbered by the economic pressures that comes with meeting the basic means for a humble living.
