Creating art is my way of interpreting what I feel in my heart, how it moves through my soul, and how I express it on canvas. Its spiritual.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Observational. Nature and people.Then try and capture the feeling with expressionistic abstract paintings. I find peace balance and serenity through experiencing the outdoors in all its majestic scenery and Wildlife. Then everyday walks of life.
Where do you find inspiration?I look up in the sky then back down on the ground. Trying be present in the moment so to capture a feeling or scene that excites and inspires.
What would you do with $25,000?Selfishly I’d buy some paints I could not normally afford. Secondly specific wildlife rescue and rehabilitation groups. Thirdly buy art materials to help veterans deal with their ptsd through art. Maybe a creative outlet for them to work out their pain, hope and dreams.
