Art is my escape mechanism instead of processing my trauma but I am creating my true emotions learning and sharing my gift with everyone
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favourite art to create is multi layered textured, airbrush, holographic images that when put into a dark space of reflect light. No matter the size or shape, all my work is from repurposed materials
Where do you find inspiration?My Mother put a paintbrush in my hand when I was 3 and I never stopped. When she passed I found 100’s of paintings and drawings and have been incorporating then in my newest works. So my inspiration is my mother. It will always be.
What would you do with $25,000?I would put money towards some current debts and some towards investing in my future
