In a moment of stillness, he stands between heaven and earth, wings open, sword in hand, scales held steady. Light rests gently around him, not overpowering, but present. A quiet strength. A calm authority. A reminder that even in uncertainty, there is balance to be found.
Michael: Held in Divine Balance carries the energy of protection, truth and inner strength. Archangel Michael, known as the guardian and protector, stands as a symbol of clarity and courage. The sword represents truth, cutting through doubt and illusion, while the scales speak of balance, integrity and right action. Together, they remind us to stand firmly in who we are, to trust our inner knowing, and to move forward with both strength and grace.
This piece was created as a reflection of those moments when life feels uncertain or out of balance. When you are searching for clarity, or needing the strength to stand your ground. It offers a steady, grounding presence. A quiet reminder that you are supported, guided, and capable of meeting whatever lies ahead.
It is not about force or control, but about alignment. About returning to your centre, where truth feels clear and your path feels your own.
Each Eldara print is created through a sacred, intuitive process in our Worcestershire studio with devotion, presence and care. The foundation begins with a richly textured Gelli plate background, formed through slow meditative layering. Seasonal foliage, wildflowers, seed heads and herbs from our Eldara garden are pressed gently onto the plate, capturing nature’s quiet beauty. Spiritual motifs are stamped and stencilled with intention before a hand drawn pen and ink illustration is transferred and merged with the layers beneath.
Printed on 300gsm cold pressed acid free watercolour paper, each piece carries a pulled border edge, is hand embossed with the Eldara mark, signed and dated, and released in small heartfelt editions.
The archival inks and fine art watercolour paper are of gallery quality but not waterproof. Keep your print dry and protect it behind glass to preserve its texture and depth of colour.
Available sizes A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) or A3 (29.7 x 42 cm) – please choose your size in the drop-down menu. Standard frame sizes are widely available to frame and mount in your chosen space.
Packaging Enclosed in a compostable Nativia bio-film sleeve with a recycled grey kraft backing board, kind to the Earth and safe for your art. To keep your print looking its best, we recommend displaying it out of direct sunlight and framing it behind glass. Each one is made to last, not just to be seen, but to be felt.
At Eldara, we believe art is a spiritual companion, a silent presence that anchors, soothes and uplifts. Every print carries the energy of the natural world and the intention of the maker.
