Spirit of the Dragon, Power of the Tiger (2012) 24″x36″ + 2 panels 16″x20″ Acrylic and glue on paper and canvas
Last year my sons asked me to paint them a dragon & a tiger, I agreed and procrastinated on the project until January when Chinese New Year celebrations (for the year of the Dragon!) gave me the inspiration for this piece. I believe that the saying painted on the canvas – long ma jing shen hu hu sheng wei (Spirit of the Dragon, Power of the Tiger) is used to wish someone great health and success.
Now I just have to do that Tiger painting …
