Nurse by day. Artist by night. My art began as coloring sheets to comfort patients and families now it’s where healing and creativity meet.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favorite type of art to create is medical illustration. Combining my background in healthcare with artistic expression, I craft images that translate complex medical experiences into relatable and compassionate visuals. Through artful healing, my work aims to comfort, and inspire, allowing individuals to see their journeys reflected with understanding, dignity, and hope.
Where do you find inspiration?My art is inspired by the belief that creativity is a form of free therapy. Though it may not solve people’s problems, it offers comfort and reminds viewers that healing can be found within art, creating space for peace, reflection, and emotional connection.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest into my future. I have goals that seem impossible but I’m not the type to give up easily.
