Art heals a part of my soul that nothing else does. I love that it also inspires others to feel a sense of wonder and connection to nature.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite art to create is nature-inspired visual art through both painting and photography. I love using different mediums to capture emotion, beauty, and the spirit of the natural world. Some stories are best told through a camera, while others come alive through paint. Both allow me to share wonder, faith, and connection with creation.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in nature, wildlife, and God’s creation. The outdoors constantly gives me new ideas through light, movement, color, and stillness. I’m also inspired by emotion, personal growth, and the reminder that beauty can be found in both peaceful and difficult seasons of life.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it into growing my art career through painting, photography, and meaningful creative projects. I’d purchase supplies and equipment, fund travel for inspiration, build my platform, and create work that encourages people to value nature, faith, and beauty in the world. I would also dedicate part of it to supporting wildlife conservation projects that protect the animals and places that inspire my art.
