Phoenix
The Phoenix artwork, initially conceived as a learning and practice project for Andrew Pilch under the mentorship of Ed Parker Jr., served as an instructional tool to enhance his proficiency in incorporating flames into his artistic endeavors. Through Mr. Parker’s guidance, Pilch successfully integrated fire into his artwork. Over time, this practice project evolved into a widely recognized symbol within the American Institute of Kenpo, embodying the significance of rising from inevitable and necessary failures as a catalyst for improvement.
