After 14.5 hours of work, "Profile of a Warrior" is complete.
This art piece is dedicated to a co-worker's 8 year old son who has cancer. His doctors recently has declared his cancer in remission, making him cancer free.
His father, Reggie, said his favorite animal was the tiger. And it instantly inspired this art piece.
My father lost his battle to lung cancer and I remember his love for my art. I hope I can spread the joy to Reggie's little boy.
I wrote a special note on the back:
Little Patrick,
You fought the hardest war anyone could have fought and you conquered.
I am so proud of you. This original artwork is for you. You are as brave as a tiger, and may the spirit of the tiger guide you on your journey through life. You inspired me to create this art piece, and you will inspire so many more.
Sincerely,
Frances "Yote" McKeever
I can't wait for his little boy to get this artwork.
