#4 A Sorrowful King - Paper Print

Regal yet burdened, “#4 A Sorrowful King” presents a striking white lion, rendered in expressive acrylics that capture both wisdom and weariness. His mane, soft and snow-like, flows with quiet grace, while his eyes tell of battles fought—not just in the wild, but within. This is a king who has known loss, strength, and reflection. Behind him, a mystic background of black and gold spray paint shimmers like distant sun—symbolizing power, mystery, and the eternal weight of leadership. The contrast between the lion’s pale presence and the dark, radiant backdrop creates a haunting elegance that demands pause.

The fourth in a compelling series, this piece speaks to those drawn to the beauty of vulnerability and the strength it takes to carry sorrow with pride.
