About The Artwork

"A Warrior Song" is an image that results from a battle-based process, more so than a somber one. From its piercing color to its unrelenting energy, the piece became laden with the fight, eagerness, and determination that its completion demanded. I always sing throughout my painting process, but this work had me producing beats of my brush against canvas and heavy breaths as I lunged to sling paint across its corners. These sounds became the basis for its title, "A Warrior Song," as the image hinged upon my embodying of a warrior—that is, my persevering, attempting, failing, and re-attempting in spite of physical and visual fatigue. The final work is a direct trace of body and mind, challenged to attain a victory.
