Art is a part of me. I see everything as art. Art reflects back to the individual as a representation of their own inner form and self.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I specialize in creating abstract mixed media works of art. I prefer to be spontaneous and utilize a stream of consciousness approach. Akin to a Jazz musician, I channel the emotions that I'm feeling at the moment, and express them on to the canvas in an almost improvisational manner.
Where do you find inspiration?Painting exists in another dimension for us Artists. It's a Spiritual Journey where we can express visions and feelings to share with people all over the World. Art is both a Healing process for the Artist and for the person who sees and appreciates it. I always experiment with new mediums as creativity is endless. It's a form of breathing and living and creating your own inner peace. LIFE is inspiration... and all it's experiences, whilst connecting to a higher Spiritual existence.
What would you do with $25,000?I would give part of it back to the art community. Having access to funds would provide me more freedom to paint and create, assist with the cost of supplies, and would afford me the pleasure of teaching young up and coming Artists and Dreamers. Paying it forward while supporting and inspiring the next generation. I would also help my family and 2 daughters who have been going through tough times.
