Art is a short of alchemy or magic in which we weave powerful stories, and subjects universal and personal all belong in art.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Believe it or not, that is a difficult question! Right now my favorite type is symbol-rich oil paintings of women and nature.
Where do you find inspiration?Learning about nature, psychology and spirituality opens up the world. My experiences and adventures as a woman and mother give my art content even more depth... emotionally vivid experiences like love, betrayal, trauma, conflict when making difficult choices, hope and wonder inform my work. I'm deeply interested in the psychology of shape and color in communicating ideas. Stories inspire me, mine and humanities' stories inspire me greatly.
What would you do with $25,000?Probably convert a school bus into a traveling art studio and travel with my daughter.
