I am obsessed with making art. It is a compulsive way of living…I have no choice but to create in some way. Otherwise, I will surely go mad.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Photography permeates every aspect of my life. I consider myself to be a fine art photographer…I like to push the limits of traditional photography but I also respect it. Photography has a range like no other art form. I truly believe it has shaped the world and will continue to do so.
Where do you find inspiration?Inspiration is everywhere. I find it in architectural elements, in the way the sun peaks through the blinds in that ethereal way and my muses of course. A great artist always needs a good muse.
What would you do with $25,000?I would build out my dream studio to support my family. I’ve always wanted to use my fine art and commercial photo skills to make a living full time. This would be a catalyst to do just that.
