"The Crazy Sage" is my interpretation of Rafiki, the iconic character from The Lion King. I wanted to capture Rafiki's crazy, unpredictable energy, but also his deeper wisdom. The title actually says it all: a "crazy wise one". Rafiki is both funny and wise, and that is exactly what I wanted to express in this painting.
With bright colours and wild lines, I tried to capture the chaos and energy of the character, but there is also a layer of meaning in the way everything comes together.
It's as if the craziness of life can sometimes lead to the greatest insights. I wanted this work to reflect both the playfulness and the deeper layers of Rafiki's character. This painting revolves around the idea that wisdom and chaos can go hand in hand.
