You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I Paint with Acrylics and mixed media ,pastles, and pencil. I love too create images that are real and surreal, images from the world around me and from my mind. I like to create images that ecspess the inner mind.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in my life and the people around me and in nature, I love to create images that depict nature, birds especially but outer wildlife also. I feel compelled to create images that ecspess metal illness or what is going on in the mind, mostly what people go through who suffer from this disease .
What would you do with $25,000?I would get a home, Right now I live in a apartment and my dream is to have a place of my own where I can have an art room.
