Description

The Angel's Stroke is a powerful and luminous work that fuses the delicacy of realistic portraiture with symbolic abstraction. At the center of the composition, a female figure, her eyes closed, appears suspended in a moment of profound serenity and elevation. The soft modeling of the skin, executed in oil, contrasts with the boldness of the golden lines drawn in acrylic, which unfold in an upward movement, like wings or celestial flames.

These fine, dynamic lines evoke both the lightness of breath and the power of divine energy. They draw a stylized aura around the figure's head and bust, featuring a crown, hair, and angelic wings. The canvas is tinged with a range of pinkish beiges and golds, reinforcing the softness and spirituality of the scene.

Through this work, J. Hanter explores the boundary between the human and the sacred, between the visible and the invisible. El trazo del ángel is both a tribute to inner grace and an invitation to let oneself be traversed by a greater, silent, and luminous force.
