This is an important piece for me... First of all this is my 100th Deviation! It's also very symbolic...I recently quit my full time job to pursue a freelance career. There was a leap of faith in this decision...The dragon symbolizes the doubts and fears of this decision. The knight symbolizes the courage and focus I must have to be a success. There will no doubt be a collision...Basically this is where I am in my life...Will I be a success and conquer my fears or will I fail?

Daily Deviation

Given 2005-07-09
This is what classic fantasy is all about. Epic acts of heroism and bravery in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Clad in armor and hope, the knight takes a glorious Leap of Faith in this stunning print by Adam Vehige

Also viewable as our Print of the Day. ( Featured by lolly )

In all the action of this piece, I have far greater emotional reaction with the horse than anything else. Whether or not he knows what is coming, whether or not he knows how steep the next ridge may be, whether or not the fact that his true chance of making it out of this confrontation alive, is likely very slim.

He still makes the jump.

Loyal and true to the end, even if that end is his eventual death.
