Artwork Description

Oil on wood

Signed on the front.

This is a portrait I loved painting. His face shows such character and dignity, and I enjoyed the way he dressed with the hat and the plaid shirt.
This painting was done in oils on an old board. The bonus for the buyer is that on the back of the board is another painting, done in acrylic paint. The title is Still Life with Big Apple.

Because it is two paintings in one, I have left it unframed. A creative framer could probably frame it in such a way as to have the option of either side facing to the front. Or, if you preferred just to show the portrait I guess you could make a canvas print from a photo of the one on the back.

Michael is often depicted in art as killing demons. I wanted to show the protector side of him particularly as a protector of our planet and humanity. I painted him in the garb of a Roman soldier as he is often shown as a warrior. He has his sword (the Sword of Solingen).
I painted his face looking with compassion down at the Earth, ready to fight if necessary.Archangel Michael is tradtionally depicted with a sword, destroying evil. I chose to show him as a protector and guardian of our planet and humanity.  
Two little birds sit together in a Cherry Blossom tree, surrounded by white cherry blossoms.  The back ground  of the Japanese style image is abstract, layering the paint in colours, drips and gold.Daisies,  Red, Orange, Yellow, abstract,
