I love having the freedom to create anything I want and turning my ideas into something visual for others to see and enjoy!
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I enjoy creating abstract and optical art. I love to make psychedelic style pieces that are funky with bright colours, and meshing together reality with illusions.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the small things I come by in my day to day life like an object, thought, conversation, song, or something I come across online. My family and friends have always supported my love for art so I’d say that inspires and motivates me as well.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use this money to get a car, try out different forms of art, and start my journey to become a tattoo artist!
