hahaha, this is a cute one, hanging on a chair to relax all muscles - a very nice painting, accurate in reality transmission - super genuine scene of a young girl still under the hard school of discipline - super detail work, great background application - the royal chair shows that one day she will be elegant and a great ballerina . Great job, thanks for sharing

Great painting. Love the way you curved her feet in. Great way you show her eyes above the cup. Beautiful highlights on the dress and the red chair is a great backdrop. Very beautiful!

Comment from Renate-Bertodi


I really like this one. You are an expert on the female form but this is so realistic those turned in feet shorter than the chair legs, grasping the cup she is drinking from- really superbly noted.

This is so lovely James. You know I love your ballerinas, they are always so beautifully done. I really like this one, a cute little girl in that huge oversized chair, drinking her soda, lol.

Very realistic in content.

Excellent work!

A very endearing painting of a girl resting between rehearsals may be.I love the brush work and the casual pose of the subject. Overall an impressive painting!

Comment from bcgrafiks


Really very nice piece.Terrific modest use of color, breaking up the monochromatic areas with the bright red and white highlights. It could have been very easy to have the subject meld into the background, but your technique and skill made this into a very well done piece. Capturing a wonderful moment.The dancers feet are a great element to the composition of this piece. A very well done work. Thanks

I love this. So pure, sweet and very realistic:o) I always admire your skill level. This piece reminds me of my eight year old daughter. She is a dancer and never leaves home without her water bottle. Always taking that much needed water break. Well done:o)

Comment from jrconrad


Really interesting. Interesting subject and execution. The dark tone adds something special. The silvery highlights on her dress are also interesting. Very creative.

This is awesome Jesuel! I love the use of the red in the chair to offset the white!
Always a great choice I think=) My niece is in dance and I could picture this being her! Really well done! Great attention to the details! Thanks for sharing! Lilibug6
