Creating art helps me relax, and get my thoughts and ideas out that are sometimes hard to verbally articulate.
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 to create art that’s colorful, meaningful (at least to me), and pretty to look at. My art always has a hidden meaning that’s personal to me and my life experiences. I love creating art that people can relate to or connect with on some level. My favorite medium to work with is watercolor!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere! I may watch a movie or a TV show and an artistic idea will pop in my head. Walking outside, going to restaurants, conversations with people, or just hanging out with my dogs, husband, family and friends always spark an idea for my next painting.
What would you do with $25,000?My husband and I are currently looking for a house. So I would use the money to help with buying things we need for our future home.
