I love to show the world beautiful colors and excitement. Creating frees my mind from everyday stress and lets me make my own reality.
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 make is large scale textural paintings with patterns using blacklight reactive colors. Mural work and large canvases excite me.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in nature, graffiti, and the world's popular culture. While teaching I find inspiration in the youth. Color drives my work and everyday life is full of it.
What would you do with $25,000?$25000 would help pay off debt and begin to settle down and to launch a sensory friendly art gallery. As a special education art teacher, I've always dreamed of having an art gallery/ studio space that would be accessible for everyone of all ages and capabilities.
