Once you've found a thing that lights up your soul, it's absolute folly not to do that thing! Creating art lights up my soul.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Probably abstract painting, but I ldo like to create in many different styles, to push myself and keep myself open to possibilities. I'm really into experimenting with different textures right now. I've also always been fascinated with bones and other objects from nature and love working with those.
Where do you find inspiration?I've always been drawn to odd ducks, so to speak. I'm inspired by people and things that don't necessarily "fit in" with the rest of the crowd. I'm provoked by things that are odd, disturbing, or spooky. I'm inspired by things that make me uncomfortable.
What would you do with $25,000?I'd love to start a little artist's co-op. A space where local artists could get together to work and inspire each other, with a storefront to promote and sell some of the incredible things they've created.
