Art is my way of expressing the chaos in my mind others can’t see and brings me peace
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love to create a lot of pieces with imaginative realism. Realism gives us a basic understanding of what we're looking at and the imaginative part is what makes us think deeper about the piece and leaves room to wonder.
Where do you find inspiration?My own thoughts, dreams, stories of my friends & family, even strangers give me inspiration everyday just by talking to them and observing raw human emotion. When I create a piece,I just want everyone to connect on the same level and get a sense of the tone of my work.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d love to invest it for the future. I’d also use a part of it as a way to support my dream of becoming a full time artist and hold art events to bring people together and raise money for cancer research in honour of the ones we’ve lost.
