It’s food for the soul. Sharing what I create is a passion. I love art in its every form. From music to acrylics
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Macabre. Horror. Monsters. Gothic Romance. And it all involves pouring acrylic paint and props. Mixed media gives the viewer so many possibilities.
Where do you find inspiration?I have to say that it depends. Life inspires. I’m inspired by the way the paints shimmer makes me feel. Horrors are spilled and plastered on so many of my creations. And Pain, pain can be beautiful. And of course my wonderful family inspires me. That twinkle in my daughter’s eyes keeps the fire in my chest burning. The way people talk and feel around what I create drives me to find different ways to play with my emotions intertwined with my imaginations and paint. Everywhere.
What would you do with $25,000?15K right into the savings that is until the conversion happens with the advisors lol A nice family vacation, an affordable basement remodel so I can move my work area down there and a major supply reinvestment and upgrade . A man’s gotta continue to create
