You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Anything that has to do with Mother Nature inspires me. Sometimes I make jewerly with stones and different metals. Or design a garden, I can see art it everything. The art of healing, the art of business, the art of teaching and the art of storytelling. There really is no end to how one can see, perform or do art
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in the flowers, the trees, the earth, the oceans the forests, and even the urban areas. When I look up at the infrastructure of a bridge I am in awe of its magnificent structural design When I see a sunset sink into the water as if it is melting, I am reminded just how beautiful our planet and the universe is. A mother who holds her baby, for the first time, just seeing her expressions inspires me to think about my foot print upon this planet. Even trash inspires me.
What would you do with $25,000?This is hard to say. At my age and what is going on in the community I live within, my future and where I live are in a state of transition. Therefore it could help me with moving. Or simply just going on a road trip with a childhood bestie. Mostly just having my work appreciated would be worth millions to me.
