When I am creating art, I feel like I am a conduit to something bigger than me. I really experience freedom.
You decide who will appear in Artforum Magazine, take home $25,000, and display their work at The Art of Elysium's Salon!
Although I started out practicing graffiti art i love doing portraiture using different styles and mediums.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in creative people both young and old. I find inspiration in different cultures. I find inspiration in knowing that I have the ability to speak the masses without saying a word.
What would you do with $25,000?For years my art studio was my kitchen, a corner of the basement, or in a garage.. I would use the money to open my own art studio / art gallery so I can be resource to other aspiring artists.
