I create art to show the world the beautiful insides of my mind. Creating is my main mission in life, and I aspire to be an art therapist.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
For me, there are no limits to my creative capabilities. I like to use different mediums such as acrylic, gouache, gel pen, pencil, colored pencil, pastels, and many more. I have tried very many things and each and every one has something special about them.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through the mundane, but most of all I try to focus on little slivers of happiness. Most of my art is joyful and meaningful. I create with purpose, and beautiful intention.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in my supplies first, so that I could make a big change in others’ lives. My biggest aspiration is to be an art therapist, transforming the lives of the ones around me. With $25,000 I would look forward to starting a non profit organization that assists the mentally ill with art therapy at no cost. My dream is to help others better themselves, one brush stroke at a time.
