You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My work sits in a really strong lane of Contemporary Mixed Media Expressionism with Surreal and Abstract Figurative elements, I like thought provoking art
Where do you find inspiration?I will take a large 40 x 40 canvas outside on a sunny day, and I find a mix of shade and sun, whatever comes out of the shadows inspires me. It always ends up completely different then what I plan on creating.
What would you do with $25,000?Honestly? I would love to have a "Art in The Park". I would love to have weekend classes during the summer months for youth and for anyone that wants to create art. I believe I would invest in art supplies and also start a paint with Lori Night. This would be for groups that want to relax and let go. I would also work with local nursing homes as part of that business. It keeps people in the "NOW". You know that space some of us go when we are painting or drawing. There's no time/space
