Recent commission for a practitioner of Shaolin, using the eagle versus tiger fighting styles as the basis for the painting. The style was left more simplistic to honor the manuscripts and scrolls that are usually adorned with the imagery of this conflict. The martial art of Shaolin Lohan Kung Fu consists of 35 chambers of study, the 13th and 14th chambers contain the lessons of Eagle Claw Kuen and Tiger Crane Kuen, these are taught just before advanced Chambers were introduced to the monks of the Shaolin temple. The painting is aerosol on canvas, 24' x 36'.
