Art gives me a place to put feelings that are too big for language.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Oil portraits and figures
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration at the sharp edge of emotion.
What would you do with $25,000?I could really use the prize money. I'd make changes to my property to allow for better ability to teach and share what I've learned. I tend to gift more than I bring in, and it's been over two decades working full time as an oil painter (originals only. No reproductions)-- and walking the line of broke. I could experience a bit of peace AND keep gifting. !
