I finally made it to the Group Finalists! Votes are doubled today. I wish to thank all of my voters in the Johnny Depp presents the “People’s Artist” (benefit)competition, words cannot express how grateful I am to all of you (especially those still voting every day)! I made it into the Group Finalists (5th Place) on June 4th, which I did not expect at all! I can only say that happened because of those who believed in me and my art. I don’t care if I win the grand prize or not (and am sure I won’t; the rounds are pretty tough) but am happy where I’m at and that my art helped a worthy cause (Art of Elysium). A very special thanks to those who donated:
Lea Huey
Wissam Assi
Nasser Abunab
Mazin Ayoub
John McClure
Ali Elbast
Jeffrey Taite
Nabil Sater
David Budziszewski
Rudy Esparza
Through your belief in me, you gave me a new belief in myself. ❤️
I Create Art Because I Have To. If I Don’t, I Become Anxious And Depressed. Creativity Is My Spirituality And My Medicine.
