Was commissioned to do this artwork for the Team Karate Centers. Still in the approval stage, but I like the way this is looking. I was very focused on the mood of this piece. I wanted a mystical mood and dramatic piece with the use of colors. I wanted to convey the rising sun imagery that maybe once inspired the icon used to represent the rising sun. I also wanted to capture a more stunning group of colors. Photographers that take the best pictures do so during what they call the magic hours. Just at sunrise and just at sunset and that is what generates the most vibrant colors and contrast with dramatic shadows and lighting. That was what I was trying to accomplish.
