I use art as an outlet to release my emotions (negative or positive) turning overwhelming feelings into something beautiful and positive.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Visual arts are definitely my favorite. I’m constantly experimenting and exploring different styles and mediums so it’d be very hard to pick a specific favorite. Right now I enjoy painting a lot as well as beading.
Where do you find inspiration?I find most my inspiration in nature within my spirituality. I also get lots of inspiration through social media and the unlimited access it gives to fellow artists.
What would you do with $25,000?$25,000 will be so life changing for me. It will really give me the ability to follow my dream of selling my artwork. I will build my brand, I will buy a reliable vehicle to travel in promoting my business. I will use it to; curate a professional website / online domain, design and publish business cards / advertising tools, as well as stock up on inventory to keep creating.
