A mythic Amazon-courage personified. As an integral part of painting this I also spent some time reading about female warriors in history. There are stories of women skilled in Agampora (a traditional Sri Lankan martial art), Boudicca of the Iceni, Joan of Arc, the Trung sisters and many more. In my corporate life I recall treating dressing for work as akin to putting on armour; a subtle reset to channel all I needed to succeed. The Sinhala words for courage, victory and joy are subtly worked into her robe and the second image shows the words for victory and joy.
