Growing up I’ve always been shy but I’ve always been able to express myself throughout art. In my life everything and anything is art.
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 create free flowing painting as if I'm writing in a diary. My art comes from my mind so I see something in my head. My body just expresses it into art. My favorite type of art is painting and using magazine pictures to add more details. Very much mix media. I love mixing my art with other materials. That's when you nail visuals, textures and beauty for me.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in life. Everything is art for me. From what I wear to how I feel. As the artist I capture art by hand creating my perspective of life into a picture.
What would you do with $25,000?First thing I would do is get a better living situation for myself and my family. I'm of mother of 2, a beautiful 3 year old girl and an energetic 1 year old boy. My family means the world to me and they always come first. After I would invest more into the life I dream of. Me and my family with our farm, traveling in our RV selling art and reselling clothes (my partner's business) just living care free.
