"Chromatic Warrior" symbolizes the display we see in nature, especially animals who present a "costume" despite their odds of survival. How are we as humans engaging in similar"cultural" acts? In this new piece, Chromatic Warrior, I wanted to create something incorporating the full spectrum of color. My "Chromatic Warrior" emerged with it's own personality.
