I create art to process my thoughts, emotions, and life. If it inspires others to reflect, imagine, or create, I'm happy with that.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
If everything in life is created, designed, and built by someone, doesn’t that make everything a form of art? I work in many mediums—abstract painting, drawing, candles, tie-dye, photography, and writing—so it’s hard to choose just one favorite. Still, abstract painting is what I return to most because it gives me the most freedom to express thoughts, emotions, and experiences without limits or expectation.
Where do you find inspiration?Anything, Everything & Life Itself! Inspiration is all around us—we just have to be open to it and grow with it. It lives in change, growth, emotions, and the way I experience and interpret the world. It can come from out of nowhere, but take me everywhere.
What would you do with $25,000?To inspire an environment of creativity, activity, imagination, and growth—creating a space where understanding, encouragement, and endless possibilities can thrive.
