WEARY WARRIOR

WEARY WARRIOR

This one is a COLLABORATION with my astounding photographer friend, Raymond Kerr—-from the Isle of Anglesey, UK.
I began with his wonderful image “AFTER THE BATTLE” please go to his page to see the original photo.

I then joined it with a shot of my awesome son Matty, shot this Thanksgiving. Then I did an extensive amount hand drawing, such as the dragon on top of the tower, and many of the clouds. I use Corel Painter X to do my drawing.

A Warrior’s work--is never done
To stand thy ground
-and never run
For in that day
-when you dart away
You grant a Dragon
-unhindered sway
To plot, and pillage
-and kill again
A Warrior is
-thy greatest friend
So raise thy head—thine eyes
-thy sword
Trust not thy flesh
-but in the Lord
For he alone
-can smite the beast
From the greatest
-to the least
But choosing yet
-to use a man
To execute
-His Holy plan
Weary is
-the Warriors way
A darkened path
-on which to stay
For only in
-a dragon kill
Do we fulfill -
-the Father’s will.

    Thanks Ladies! Phenomenal! I am humbled by such a grand title. I just wanted to create what I saw the first time Ray posted his image. Matty and I are working on a movie script along these lines, and I have also begun writing a novel that “feels” just like this art. Welcome to my brain—-it’s a wild place to hang out! LOL!
    Love Ya!
