I love to create art that others can enjoy and appreciate.I’ve always been drawn to capturing the moment in time, to look back on later.
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 is Photography and any form of drawing with Watercolor, Ink, charcoal drawings acrylic’s. I also found a love in 3D sculptures. With Photography I love to capture wildlife, family and friend events. I was lucky to take candid wedding pictures for a couple in November 2025, having that experience made me more open to continue taking wedding pictures in the future.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration has always been my family, for years they would complain about taking pictures for events.However, they always loved being able to look back and see those moments later on down the road. Because our world is changing I’ve found more inspiration to document what our world and environment looks like today for others who also find love in helping the environment and seeing the landscapes evolve!
What would you do with $25,000?I would put it towards schooling, I’m a freshman about to begin my sophomore year for a BFA in Photography. My parents are helping me with schooling but I would love to help them and make it easier. They’ve always supported me and to me if there any opportunities I want to take them because it makes me happy showing my art and to help the ones that have always been there and supported me.
