Art has always been a big part of me. It takes me into a world that allows me to be creative in what I’m so passionate about.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
It varies. I’m passionate about all animals but also love creating with people of all ages. My art work gears towards realism but I also like to combine abstract with my work.
Where do you find inspiration?I find it in my every day life such as when I take my dog for a walk. Just a few days ago we were walking in the bush and a red tail hawk flew right in front of me and it was such a magical moment in time. When we are at the trailer I see so many beautiful birds especially the herons. On our travels no matter where we go this country has so much to offer us. As an artist we see beauty in just about everything from the simpelest thing as a rock to the majestic mountains. Life is what inspires me.
What would you do with $25,000?I would love to enter in some art festivals which can be costly and it would help with the travelling, registration, hotels fees. Also it would help with my art supplies, framing my work
