Acrylic on stretched canvas
101.6 x 76.2 cm (40 x 30 in)
Boxers touches on Muhammad Ali’s famous quote “Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.” The figure and the doodle are either gearing up for a boxing match, or are fighting already. Here I show the constant struggle between the artist and his artwork. Oftentimes, I feel like I am fighting my painting, as though I’d rather it create itself. Thus, this piece exhibits a version of me fighting the painting until it eventually becomes the piece I want it to be.
Artwork is signed on bottom right corner.
