Art is an escape & passion for me. From process, to the mistakes, and growth. Art is about expression, self exploration and reflection.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Multimedia art, using different mediums to create one final masterpiece. I dabble in most mediums but my strong points are acrylic, aerosol, charcoal, pastel, pencil, oil stick even photography.
Where do you find inspiration?In everyday life and human interaction is where inspiration comes from. Other peers and fellow artist also inspire me whether through a project or idea, inspiration is around every corner. From good experiences to bad, turning every emotion into art, expressing what words can’t. I find inspiration in almost everything and just add my own artistic interpretation, vision and touch…
What would you do with $25,000?I would use portion of the money to have a show and invite several artist to showcase along side with. I’d sell merch and prints while simultaneously displaying the last 20 years of art and growth next to fellow creatives. I would then use portion of the money to buy supplies and restock items in the studio. With whatever money is left, I would buy supplies and donate my time and talent for a new mural for a business, city or school in my local community or surrounding area.
