When I dove into creating this piece featuring Brad Garlinghouse, it wasn’t just about slapping an image on the screen – I aimed to capture some profound vibes. Set against the backdrop of Crypto Winter 2023 and Ripple’s resilient comeback from the SEC drama, I envisioned Brad as this strategic commander, navigating the snowy peaks of the market, a distant castle lit up. In this narrative, I want to emphasize Brad’s leadership, toughness, and future vision with the aim of creating a piece that transcends the canvas – something with depth, a touch of flair, and a sense of historical significance.
