Taking Over

Built From Original Artwork.

Kobe Bryant didn’t share the spotlight — he took it. Taking Over is a REFYNED™ tribute to the Mamba mentality in full effect — the Lakers dynasty, the championships, the relentless pursuit of greatness that defined one of the most iconic careers in basketball history.

This piece holds a special place in the REFYNED™ catalog. Taking Over was the first original painting David Courson created on metal — the piece that started it all. Hand-painted in oil on a 24" x 48" metal surface, it is the origin of everything REFYNED™ has become.

Kobe in gold and purple — the Staples Center, the fourth quarter, the moment. This was the painting that proved metal was the right surface. The depth, the light, the texture — everything clicked on this piece. David Courson has painted on metal ever since.
