I create to express what I can't put into words. I take the world's pigments and bring them to life on the canvas.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Oil on canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?Watching my kids create. To them drawing isn't a task it's a way to ' run away without leaving home.' They don't worry about the right way to do it or what the end result looks like- they just exist in the moment of pure creation. Feeling the total presence and the ability to travel anywhere through a blank page.
What would you do with $25,000?Recently had a flood in my apartment, lost my brushes and a few canvases. Insurance doesn't cover. So, I would buy new brushes and art supplies.
