About the Work

"Archael" invites viewers into a mystical realm where encounters with otherworldly beings are vividly depicted. The composition centers around a stately figure clad in a flowing, vibrant orange robe, embodying a profound and mystical experience. Flanking the figure are ethereal guardians: a winged feline creature cradled gently, exuding tranquility, and a poised, elongated creature standing sentinel, each contributing to the painting's serene yet powerful atmosphere.

The backdrop is a tapestry of the cosmos, with lustrous stars scattered across the dark expanse, framing the subjects and enhancing their divine presence. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the textured portrayal of feathers and the elaborate adornments, adding a tactile quality to the celestial scene.

With a harmonious interplay of earthly elegance and cosmic imagery, this piece offers a deep symbolic resonance and a visual narrative that transcends the ordinary. It is an evocative addition to any collection, appealing to those with an affinity for art that captures the interconnection of the mystical and the material.

Artist Profile

Creative Process

Surrealium's art starts with traditional sketching and painting, with some pieces evolving digitally through AI and generative technologies. Each artwork undergoes about 4000 iterations, balancing creativity and precision. The final pieces are printed using the Giclée method on archival paper, capturing texture and color with high fidelity for sophisticated, lasting art prints.

Materials and Care

Our prints are crafted using the finest inks on sustainably sourced archival paper, ensuring an 80-year archival life. Handle with care due to the delicate surface. Prints are delivered in a hard-surface box for protection and unframed in sustainable packaging. Framing is recommended upon arrival to protect the edges. These hybrid artworks blend traditional, digital, and generative art techniques, printed on Hahnemühle Rag paper (308 gsm, matte finish) using the Giclée method with 11 Ultra Wide Gamut Inks. Each limited edition includes 50 prints per size, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
