I create art as a means to express myself in a way words are unable to do, and it helps me work through the dark times of my life.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I like drawing mainly; my art style is a mix between cartoonistic and semi-realism. I focus primarily on shading and dimension.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the complexity of the emotions I feel, and the trials I've faced. I simply like to create things that can catch someone's eye, and make them say "that's different."
What would you do with $25,000?I would use $25,000 to jumpstart my journey through college, and get some place set up for me to call home for a while. I may also set some aside for future ventures with my art in either the near future or later on in life.
