I love making people laugh and encouraging them to use their imagination. I aim to create art that tells a story.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love creating weird, wacky, slightly unhinged paintings.
Where do you find inspiration?I grab inspiration from laughs shared with family and friends. Ever since adopting my niche of giant fire-breathing animals, I get to hear people’s creative ideas- no matter how strange!
What would you do with $25,000?First, I would love to invest in better materials to work with. I would love to see what I would be capable of creating if I wasn’t using on sale, discounted paints and brushes. Second, i would love to create opportunities to lead lessons or paint classes that focus on students (of any age) embracing their creativity and bringing their wildest ideas to life through art. As a past improv teacher, I would really hone in on using “yes, and” to help people feel confident with their weird ideas.
