I love creating art because it feels like a release. When I draw or make something, everything just quiets down and I can be in my own world
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I usually work with charcoal. I like focusing on shadows, depth, and emotion.. things that feel a little darker or more intense rather than super polished.
Where do you find inspiration?I get inspired by random things.. lighting, vibes, sometimes even people. If something catches my attention, I want to draw it.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d first take care of my debt so I can have a fresh start. Then I’d get my own place and finally invest in opening an art studio so I can turn something I love into something real.
