I create art because I have to. It’s in me. It’s how I show my true feelings.
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 is (emotional Art) You turn the music on really loud that day with whatever you’re feeling so the music will match that feeling of emotion and the sun is shining and you have a huge canvas in front of you and buckets of paint and Primary colors and you just go to town on that canvas…. You don’t care if the paint gets on you on your clothes under your fingernails on your face you just go for it. It’s FREEDOM!
Where do you find inspiration?All around me. Life when life gets hard. Happiness, confusion, sadness, death, Life, Just being human….
What would you do with $25,000?Buy more paint and canvases, maybe even get a PR rep for my paintings. Then take my daughter to a VERY NICE DINNER next to the beach!! She loves the beach.
