I have been creating ever since I could hold a pen. I love being able to think of something in my head and bring it to life. It brings peace
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
I love painting realism. Sometimes my focus changes. Lately I have been focusing on faith based pieces. But I love playing with the lighting, color, and shadows to give contrast to my pieces. I also recently have started my journey in jewelry making, wire wrapped art and decorations.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in nature and every day life. All of God's creations are beautiful and I love to TRY to recreate them from my point of view. Also, I love to bring ideas from my mind to life. Everything I paint has meaning that I try to get across as an image.
What would you do with $25,000?$25,000 would be life changing for me. It would be a great start to a new life. I am just getting married in 2 weeks and it would help us build our life's foundation. I had a hard and exhausting struggle with addiction that I just overcame only through the grace of God. I would like to build a life that I never imagined I could have and with this money it would be possible.
