Gesture by Yana Evans is an original Cherub and Butterfly Pencil Drawing that captures a timeless moment of wonder. A cherub reaches toward a butterfly – fragile, elusive, and symbolic of the soul. In Renaissance art, butterflies were celebrated as emblems of transformation and immortality, while cherubs embodied innocence and divine presence. Collectors of the medieval and early modern eras often admired butterflies as symbols of life’s brevity, making their pursuit a metaphor for beauty that cannot be held.
Evans’s drawing combines this history with the precision of Old Master studies. Fine shading and delicate contours create a scene suspended in stillness, inviting the viewer to pause and reflect. In a home or private collection, Gesture is more than pencil on paper – it unfolds as a meditation on wonder, purity, and the passage of time.
This piece is available as original pencil art for sale. For collectors and new clients alike, Yana Evans also accepts commissions. You may commission an artist directly to create a custom portrait commission, a pencil portrait commission, or a personalized symbolic artwork tailored to your vision. Each commission is a collaborative process, ensuring the finished drawing is unique and deeply meaningful.
