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 groundand never run-
For in that daywhen you dart away-
You grant a Dragonunhindered sway-
To plot, and pillageand kill again -
A Warrior isthy greatest friend-
So raise thy head—thine eyesthy sword-
Trust not thy fleshbut in the Lord-
For he alonecan smite the beast-
From the greatestto the least-
But choosing yetto use a man-
To executeHis Holy plan-
Weary isthe Warriors way-
A darkened pathon which to stay-
For only ina dragon kill-the Father’s will.
Do we fulfill -

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!
