I love to make art pieces because I can put my soul in my artwork and it's just who I am. It's helped me through a lot of tough times.
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 pyrography art pieces, because to be able to take a piece of wood and burn something beautiful onto it is immensely satisfying. Being able to take something that could have become firewood or furniture and turn it into an art piece that someone will love? There's no other feeling like it.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from my husband and my family and friends. My husband isn't afraid to critique my work but still praises my efforts, my parents have always encouraged me and my siblings to try new things and do the things we enjoy, my grandmother is always proud of us no matter what we try, and my best friend is my biggest cheerleader!
What would you do with $25,000?I would love to invest more into my art and maybe open a gallery!
