Rafael Kayanan

Fantastic EBAY pick-up several years ago. There is so much going on in this piece. I didn't know the artist before I bought it, but a quick google and he has had a very interesting a career in comics, movies, and martial arts.

I’ve had a chance to talk to the artist on IG and ask about this piece. He told me the following

“Past few years, I’ve been illustrating images that has a mix of filipino tribal motifs, fantasy and loosely based on island mythology. Its part of a future ogn project that I am squeezing into my work schedule when I can. This image has a dragon slayer who has found a living dragon nest.“

Great piece on new context added to a great piece of art!
