I use art as therapy. I have PTSD, anxiety and depression disorder and doing art in any form is calming for me. I love the end results.
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 try new things, so i love it all. Painting, floral arrangements, wood burning, taking photos, love making like size halloween creatures. Just all art.
Where do you find inspiration?My emotions rule. If I'm having a bad or sad or happy or exciting day, it inspires me to create something, anything to express that emotion. In the end it calms me and I'm more relaxed and its a piece I will enjoy for a long time. So, it's a win win for me.
What would you do with $25,000?I would purchase a permanent place to call my home. Doesn't have to be much. Its just me, I just want it to be mine.
