"Sphinx"
The idea for this painting had been in my sketchbook for 12 years and I originally imagined the subject as a reclining figure (odalisque) in a similar setting. When I came to do the painting 6 months ago I decided to elevate the figure to a position of protector and give it a regal sensibility. This reminded me of my trip to Giza, Eygpt where the ancient builders had combined the pharaoh Kafre’s head and the body of a lion to create the Sphinx as a deity. For the painting, I wanted the bear to be a solemn beauty and for viewers to offer respect and veneration for her and the nature that she is protecting.
