Art gives me a place to process my emotions, release my struggles, and preserve moments of my life as something beautiful.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Realism with colored pencil and digital paintings.
Where do you find inspiration?I get my inspiration from my own experiences, my friends and family, mental health, and spiritual life. Whether that’s grief, love, a song, a biblical passage, or just my cat laying in his favorite spot. Art of Elysium bringing art into hospitals and elder care is so special to me, because while my father was on hospice I sat with him and drew his last commission. I used my talent to make him smile in his suffering, and I’ll now cherish forever in his memory.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off debt, and save for my future family. I work 2 jobs and share a car with my husband; it would be life changing to be able to hit our savings milestones and conquer some financial burden so I can continue to follow my passion of teaching and creating.
