I create art to showcase the beauty that revolves around my mind that encapsulates how I experience the world around me.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love to create mixed media art. I enjoy finding elements I come across and finding a use for it. I believe things deserve second chances to be transformed into something meaningful & beautiful.
Where do you find inspiration?Alice in wonderland is one of my biggest inspirations ever since I was a child. Nature, music, and our human emotions are big elements when it comes to creating my art.
What would you do with $25,000?I would give back to the people who have supported and believed in me from the beginning. Pay for my cats vet treatments. Publish my book. And start a non profit to teach and support kids in foster care & around the world to create and share their art, give them hope by helping them create their own world where they feel safe. Creating art has given me that, I want to return the gift to the world. With whatever is left, I would invest for the future of what I will leave behind.
