I love creating art because it feels like I’m turning whatever’s in my head into something you can actually see and feel.
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 to put my emotions with my art, anything where I can mix chaos and control. I like blending different techniques like bleach, paint, and textures to create something that feels layered, raw, and unique. It’s never just one thing, and that’s what makes it exciting for me!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my own emotions and the way I experience things. A lot of my ideas come from how I’m feeling in the moment, or things I don’t always know how to put into words. I love how creating that turns into something real.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d honestly use it to take some pressure off first, paying off debt and helping my family where I can, especially my mom. Then I’d pour the rest into my business. My art means a lot to me and I would love to do my art full time. I’d invest in better materials, build up my inventory, and really grow my brand. I want to create something that not only supports me, but the people I care about too.
