This is apart of my drawing series "I have a fondness for...." I researched Steve Price and the Auckland warriors. I was humbled by the culture surrounding the team. There is a great emphasis on family and education. This in a complex contemporary society seams very desirable being apart of a supportive guided network. Where as often one can feel lost and isolated. Being the captain of the team Price is a role model. The treatment of my pencil work is a traditional tonal study. This is one that can be traced back to antiquity... It makes me think of Pricey in this Roman or Greek warrior light.
There are more to come in this series...
