A Wampanoag warrior prepares for an imminent raid on a New England village, hiding amid some fallen trees. Armed with an advanced flintlock musket sold to the natives by Europeans for hunting, steel Tomahawk, a locally made embroided shot bag and a powder keg made from a gourd. Much of the native power came in their raiding ability, forming up in the woods to attack isolated farmsteads or even entire towns.

As part of my history degree, I wrote a dissertation on the little known conflict of "King Philip's War" in the New England Colonies. This was fought in the 1600s between English colonist militias and their native allies against other native tribes of the area, brought on by the rapid expansion of the New England colony. To go with it, I began a series of portraits depicting both the colonists and native peoples of the time.
