A Warrior’s Spirit Never Dies

Acrylic on Canvas, Four-Piece Series

For countless generations, the ancestors of this land stood as protectors. They bravely fought for their survival, for their families, their people, their way of life and their sacred land.

Each warrior who died in battle gave their life with honour and purpose, so that their families and loved ones would survive and prosper. And when they did fall, they did not vanish. They returned to the Spirit World, where the ancestors waited with open arms.

Though their earthly vessels fell, their spirits rose, unyielding and eternal, welcomed home by their family to take their place among the warriors of the Spirit World. To watch over and shield all of humanity and all sentient beings. To fight evil, evil that feeds on fear, hate, greed, corruption, injustice, addiction, and other destructive forces.

To this very day, their legendary legacy lives on: in the stories we tell, in the songs we sing. The warrior’s spirit lives on in all of us.

We protect. We provide. We love. We nurture. And through every act of love and strength, we remind the world and we remind the universe: a warrior’s spirit never dies.
