I love creating art because of the freedom and peace it brings me. Art gives me the duplexity to both express myself and create stories.
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 type of art is 2D animation as well as drawing simple cartoons. I love the ability to make characters move around and create different scenes and scenarios. I also enjoy drawing horror concepts and different creatures.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from various media that I grew up watching. Old cartoons inspire me to draw up different humorous scenes. Old and modern horror films inspire me to create different creatures and think about the different messages that can be told throughout a story.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use the $25,000 towards my college expenses to further help me with my dream to get my bachelor degree in Art/Multimedia animation.
