This is a piece of colour therapy for me and was very cathartic. I wanted to create a warrior to watch over us. The colours come from the heart and communicate power and love. The purple represents power, but when mixed with white in the headdress, it becomes pink and comes to represent softness, love and protection. The warrior's eyes and mouth are based on Nelson Mandela and his wisdom and strength. The Ngong hills in the background represent Nairobi .... folklore states that God, or Lengai, hit the hills with his fist, creating the pattern of knuckles in the ridges. The piece is large and is painted in layered glazes of oils on canvas.
