Because when I create, I represent how I feel and while I’m painting or playing guitar I’m expressing and feeling myself and my inner self.
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 types of art are visual, plastic and musical arts. Specially oil painting, I love painting portraits or imaginary landscapes.
Where do you find inspiration?In every place, deep inside myself, every feeling I have, every experience I live, people and music.
What would you do with $25,000?I would save that money for my son, my family, my health, my dreams. I would also use it to travel visit my family or to go somewhere I’d really love to. For my artist career and instruments.
