"Angel Below Moon" 18 x 24 Acrylic & Oil - $400.00

 

      
    This piece bridges medieval iconographic tradition with modern surrealist vision, centering on quiet reverence within an otherworldly, eternal space.

    
    The layered gold ground establishes an atmosphere unbound by earthly time, echoing the uncreated light of early Byzantine and proto-Renaissance altar works. Against this warm plane, the angel stands in pure profile, hands clasped in inward contemplation, flanked by sweeping wings rendered in detailed metallic blues. Grounding the figure, the hair is executed in flat, dense slate and graphite, while an anachronistic, cratered moon glows in electric neon pink. This juxtaposition fractures traditional celestial imagery, transforming an ancient symbol of cyclic transience into a stark, contemporary transmission.
