I create art to reconnect tho who I am. Turning years of hardship and silence into healing, truth, and soul expression.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I create intuitive, soul-led portraits, channeling energy, symbolism, and emotion into each piece. I connect to something beyond the surface to reflect a person’s essence, helping them feel seen, remembered, and activated. My work blends the mystical and the human, translating unseen truth into visual form.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in people, in healing, and in the unseen. It comes through a deep connection. I show up, start with an idea, stay open, and allow something greater to move through me. My work is guided by intuition, curiosity, and a deep pull to explore what exists beyond the visible. The desire to find meaning and purpose in this for myself and others.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it to step fully into my work as an artist by investing in materials, education, and building a sustainable creative career for myself and my children. It would allow me to move out of survival mode and into creation, sharing my work on a larger scale, connecting with others, and creating art that helps people remember who they are.
