I love to create art to feel peace, and let my emotions come out silencing the responsibility or bad things that sometimes suffocate myself.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite type of art to create is
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my daily life. When I walk at my school, I take moments to appreciate the long trees branches, the movement of the palms, the lights of objects, and texture of things. My inspiration is also from photographs I saw on social media; I really like the movement of the nature, like the water, the palms when is a windy day, in the same way the colors of the sky and the birds flying. I also found inspiration in the color value and people face features.
What would you do with $25,000?I would save it for a bachelors degree in special education and later a fine art bachelor degree; I would really like for people to see my art and find calm on it.
