I was reflecting about the oaths we make to ourselves. I have made many good oaths, intended to make me stronger and healthier, that I didn't keep. What good is a promise to yourself that you don't keep it? As I get older I have done a better job of keeping my oaths, and this painting is meant to show more gravitas. Even if the oath is to your own dreams.
So, I was asked what inspired me to paint this.
