I enjoy the vision, the creation, the product of my hard work, and the satisfaction I receive at the end seeing it come together!
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I’m versatile! I love most art you can put to paper with a few extra . Pencil sketching, pen work, acrylic painting, etc. Line work is my favorite part of any art piece. Always been a huge fan of crisp lines!
Where do you find inspiration?I’ve had a huge goal to become a tattoo artist since middle school. Right now I’m in my stay-at-home mom era to 3 little boys, so I’m putting that dream on hold until they’re in school and I have some free time on my hands to start working for an apprenticeship.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off our medical debts from giving birth this past January, before putting the rest in savings to have some emergency support as needed. As a family of 5 the spare cushion is much needed. Depending on what’s left, I might use some money to build a starter tattoo kit so I could familiarize myself with the machine on fake skin while I continue to build a portfolio for an apprenticeship when the time comes.
