I love to create art because it is a way to express yourself through texture, movement, style, images, and colour.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
My favourite type of art to create is sketches. I like to think that sketches is a form of art that doesn't require perfection; strokes are a form of character to each line that connects the sketch together. Sketching can be quick or done at any pace you like, and with a sketch pad small enough to carry around, you can capture the still life. Sketches are not drawn to be perfect, but with style and confidence, even if it is a mess, from afar you still see how magnificent it is.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration from the beauty that I find in ordinary things, that only I can bring to life from my imagination. My inspiration comes from the little details I catch on a random day that makes me ponder, how I could bring meaning to ordinary things. I like to emphasize the small details of objects and remanence why these things matter to me. From there, I want my art to inspire the world to express their minds through art.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000, I would use a portion of it to do some Angel Tree shopping to gift kids goodies because I grew up lucky, able to afford so many plushies, figurines, and technology from my family and I want to be able to share that happiness with kids who can't have that childhood. Another portion of the money, I will use to take out my friends and family for a good meal to return their favour of giving me the best years of my life. The rest, I would hope to save it up for my future needs.
