Happy Birthday to The Rock!
A homage to a man whose physical strength is equal to the depth of his humble heart. A man who remains focused on what's important in life, who's true to himself and who chooses to enlighten and inspire millions of people everyday.
Because there's nothing sexier than a man who's strong, smart, funny as hell, and inspiring all in one. I admire a man of class, but who isn't afraid to get messy. A man full of passion and integrity who holds his morals and beliefs close to his heart; who knows who he is, what he wants, and is driven and committed to himself, his mission in life, his family, and his values. I dedicate this to a man whose actions speak louder than words, the man with a heart of gold.

I painted this piece in January, excited at the thought of a new year with a new outlook and goals to be accomplished. I thought he was the perfect example and true motivation to take risks, work hard for what you want, and transform your dreams into reality. Since then, I have accomplished many little short-term goals I set for myself, that got me closer to achieving the bigger long-term ones. Thank you to The Rock for inspiring me to get out of my comfort zone, for exposing my artwork internationally, and for being an amazing role model and human being.
