Title
The Healing Touch
Artist
June Pauline Zent
Medium
Drawing - Pencil On Linen Board
Description
The original of this image hangs in the cancer wing of Palm Beach/Martin County Medical Center in South Florida. A commission by one of the founders who also ordered a Limited first edition. Here I have released a archival open edition in several sizes so all can own the prints.
The edition ordered by the hospital was 200
images the same size as the original sold for $ 200.00 each with proceeds benefiting the hospital. As the artist I supervised the printing and delivered them to the hospital.

You warm my heart with this gorgeous image. What a masterful artistic challenge to do these hands.
June Pauline Zent replied:
Thank you so much Maria. No subject is too difficult if you love it and hands say so much without the trappings of faces or figures. They allow the viewer to identify and put themselves into the artwork. Besides they are my favorite subject. Thank you for your uplifting compliments!

How beautiful! As a cancer survivor, I know how healing a loving touch can be. l/f

Kay, This drawing 30x40 inches was commissioned by Palm Beach Martian County Medical Center in Florida. At the time one of the founders of the hospital posed for the male hand and hung the original in the new CANCER center! I produced a 200 limited edition hand signed print for them to raise funds for the cancer center. It has helped many people and I am proud of that. I thought you might like to know the back story and thank you for your very touching and approbate comment!
