"Protected" is a tribute to love, beauty, and the invisible support that always surrounds us. A woman stands in profile, her eyes closed in a moment of contemplation. Her braid is adorned with white flowers, and a single rose rests behind her ear—a symbol of both fragility and strength in harmony. Behind her, like a silent guardian, stands an angel. His presence is gentle yet powerful, his wings shimmering with gold leaf, and a crown of white roses resting upon his head. His hands, barely visible, move tenderly toward her waist, as if to hold her in a protective embrace.
Around them, a dreamlike floral display unfolds—pink and purple blossoms intertwine with cherry branches stretching across the canvas, framing and enhancing the feeling of eternal care and love. The background, an abstract blue surface textured with a palette knife, contrasts with the romantic motif and deepens the painting's emotional expression.
This piece carries a quiet whisper: You are never alone. There is a presence of protection and love around us, something that holds us up even in our darkest moments.
