When I’m lost I find art. Not in a cliche way. I once was lost in mt hood Forrest. Two days . I started to draw and then I was found s&R.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Faces, people, candid, photo. Nothing is more expressive than a face. And I chase that to express in art in nature . Will you say hello the next time you see me?
Where do you find inspiration?I look to my favorites steadman, Basquiat, pollock, lynch… otherwise it’s meditation… I do not know where it comes from. Life is a gift and art is the way I can express gratitude. “
What would you do with $25,000?I would investigate and listens to all trusted sources and try to listen to the universe/ in that create the most impactful art exhibition possible . Collective or which ever. I do my best to not look into a future I can’t see but i would give it back in one way or another . Be better artist for sure
