I create art to capture my own emotions while make sense of my life experiences and turning these powerful emotions into surreal like images
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Personal emotionally loaded surreal art
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my own real life experiences and memories along with some of my favorite artists such as Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, Remedios Varo, Salvador Dalí. These great artists that lived long ago also help me to pull inspiration from our culture and my roots, they may have made these paintings long ago but our culture and our roots remain the same full of life.
What would you do with $25,000?I would definitely use the 25,000 for my family’s needs and to continue my art making journey.
