    BARBARIAN, or, sickle cell anemia is an original 11" x 14" canvas painting by Huntsville artist yumedyne, created with acrylic paint, oil paint, and glitter sealant.

    This unframed work explodes with raw, jagged color and primitive symbolism: arrows pierce through, eyes watch from the margins, and a figure crouches under the weight of both physical and spiritual wounds. Tattoos of daggers, bones, and skulls mark the body, while bold lines and chaotic textures recall cave paintings and graffiti.

    The title pushes the painting into darker terrain — connecting themes of illness, brutality, survival, and identity — yet the neon vibrancy and glitter finish keep the work alive in tension between beauty and violence.
