These are outstanding giclées or archival pigment prints where each one is hand proofed and signed by me. Giclée printing is a fine art digital printing method using specialist archival pigment inks and acid-free papers; creating museum/gallery prints with excellent depth of colour, longevity and stability.
Studies have shown that Giclee Prints colour vividness can last in excess of 200 years with tests by independent bodies such as Wilhelm Research and printer manufacturers such as Epson. This gives assurance to collectors and art buyers of this type of printing method.
Canvas: We use Urth canvas, the world’s first solvent canvas with archival certification by the Fine Art Trade Guild. Manufactured by the leading canvas supplier of award-winning digital inkjet canvas, Breathing Color® uses agent-free Fluorescent Whitening and Chromata white to create a canvas free of optical brighteners while still producing canvas prints with bright whites and true vivid colors that will not fade or yellow over time. With OBA-free Urth canvas, your print can hang in direct sunlight and remain fade-resistant and as beautiful as the day it was printed. The canvas has a built-in coating, which makes it moisture and abrasion-resistant, with UV protection. The canvas is durable enough to withstand cleaning by taking a damp cloth to the surface to remove dust.
Inks: We use UltraChrome GS3 HD inks, which have a wide & rich color gamut range. The inks are sprayed upon canvas, hence the “giclee application,” with extreme detail and vibrancy, thus creating a stunningly sharp image. Tested by Wilhelm Research, these lightfast, archival inks are designed to last for over a century
Wood: The wood used to create the stretcher bars for your print is made from poplar trees, which are extremely strong and durable.
Printing Equipment: industry leading Epson Surecolor S80600 and the 9900 Pro Series, which prints at astounding resolutions of 1440 ppi.
Artwork Description and Symbolism
Action is a declaration of masculine clarity: the moment a person decides to move forward without waiting for permission, validation, or perfect conditions. Within Bradford’s Awaken the Divine Within portfolio, this piece restores the divine masculine to its rightful role—not as dominance or force, but as direction, protection, and disciplined execution. While the masculine principle exists within every person, this artwork speaks directly to men who sense that something essential has been diluted or deferred: the call to act, to lead one’s own life, and to convert insight into structure. Paired with its counterpart, Inspiration—the divine feminine that receives vision—Action completes the internal polarity required for a grounded, meaningful life: receive the insight, then move your body and your will in alignment with it, by taking the inspired actions that steadily move you toward your goals.
Visually, the artwork presents a high-intensity montage where time, responsibility, and intentional movement converge. At the center is a large clock face with a bold red second hand, symbolizing the non-negotiable nature of time and the masculine obligation to respect it diligently. Surrounding the clock are figures suspended mid-motion, each representing an aspect of masculine competence expressed through the body: a snowboarder committing fully to the launch, an urban dancer executing a powerful leap, a martial artist demonstrating controlled force, a runner in disciplined stride, the iconic Michael Jordan slam-dunk silhouette—focus defying gravity—and a stoic hero figure, James Bond, embodying calm decisiveness under pressure.
The composition deepens as the background divides diagonally. Above, a sharply dressed man stands beside a rising chart, symbolizing earned results through sustained effort, delayed gratification, and long-term thinking. Below, a pole-vaulter lunges forward as a hooded opponent materializes, representing the internal adversary every person must confront: hesitation, avoidance, resentment, and the impulse to outsource responsibility. The electric blues, blacks, and reds—combined with digital speed lines and fractured particles—create an atmosphere of momentum, friction, and consequence. The directive “TIME FOR ACTION” is not motivational fluff; it is a boundary. A reminder that insight without movement decays into frustration.
This work reveals masculinity as reliable motion toward what matters—the ability to choose, commit, and follow through even when emotions fluctuate and shit gets tough. For men, especially, Action serves as a visual anchor for reclaiming agency when struggling with analysis paralysis, procrastination, or perfectionism, in a world that often conflates masculinity with excess or aggression. For all viewers, it affirms a universal truth: no vision survives without execution.
Displayed in a home, office, or studio, Action becomes a daily standard—an insistence that your life is shaped not by what you know, but by what you repeatedly do with what you know. Collected alongside Inspiration, it forms a complete internal system: perception paired with power. Acquire Action now as both a statement and a discipline—one that does not ask who you might become, but demands who you are willing to be.
Accompanying Inspirational Exercise: “Masculine Integrity Loop (Decide → Act → Complete)”
Let this artwork inspire you to take whatever action is currently necessary in your life. Once per day, place both feet firmly on the ground. Set a 10-minute timer. Ask one direct question:
“What is the next responsibility I already know I need to take?”
Do not negotiate the answer.
Choose one action that is concrete, bounded, and finishable today—no planning spirals, no optimization. Then execute it immediately and complete it fully within the time limit. When finished, pause for 30 seconds and acknowledge the result—not with praise, but with ownership: “I did what I said I would do.”
This exercise trains masculine integrity as alignment between decision and behavior. Practiced daily, it rebuilds self-trust, stabilizes emotional reactivity, and restores a grounded sense of personal authority. For men, it reclaims the masculine as dependable and self-directed. For all people, it reinforces the truth that action—clean, timely, and intentional—is the bridge between inner knowing and lived reality.
Accompanying Inspirational Exercise variations designed to pair Inspiration (divine feminine) and Action (divine masculine) as a living polarity practice. Each exercise applies to both men and women, while allowing individuals to emphasize the quality they are intentionally strengthening—masculine-leaning men anchoring action, feminine-leaning women deepening inspiration—without denying the necessity of both within every person.
The Daily Polarity Anchor (Stability & Emotional Regulation)
Best for: Stress reduction, consistency, nervous system regulation
Primary feminine skill: Emotional attunement
Primary masculine skill: Structure
Each morning, complete these two prompts in writing:
Inspiration: “What am I sensing or feeling beneath the surface that supports the alignment of my goals or strengthens my relationships?”
Action: “What is one small, stabilizing action that materializes this feeling?”
Then perform the action the same day.
This practice teaches that feelings are not commands—but data—and that structure exists to support, not suppress, emotional truth.
This practice is not about becoming “more masculine” or “more feminine” in a superficial sense. They are about restoring the internal rhythm that allows insight to become reality and effort to remain meaningful. When Inspiration and Action operate in partnership, well-being increases naturally—because life is no longer being forced or postponed, but lived in alignment.
