Art helps me put my indescribable feelings and pent up frustration into something people can begin to understand.
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 to create is the kind thats meaningful to everybody, I want everybody to find they’re own meaning to it. but most importantly it resonates within me and i can look back on it and be proud of what I've accomplished. I find painting portraits is my preferred way to make art. I find expressions to be most meaningful to me and other people.
Where do you find inspiration?I mainly find my inspiration with music, i consider music my second love and within that space i believe i can make anything i think of. Its common for me to get lost in it and think of new ideas and i find my self inspired and eager to paint.
What would you do with $25,000?With 25,000 dollars i can only imagine. but what i do know is that ive always been the kind of person to give back. I love my family and i love my hobbies and so i would ensure the best i can as a young artist that the people around me are fulfilled and secured. On the side i would save for art school, even maybe abroad. But most importantly i would do what i love freely, art.
