It's always interesting to see others view of Mother Nature herself. Yours in very interesting. I like the flow of soft colors moving with her dance. Pleasing to the eye!

    Lynseey,
    she is a very fluid and constantly changing figure, with many moods.
    Salutation, Happy New year... yes, they do look like they are floating, flowing effortlessly across the paper, as they did across the stage. . these were very interesting circumstances, a great experience and so I wanted to try a capture the whole mood of the dance in each piece I drew. I did not want to crop out what I actually saw, a blank stage that all of a sudden came to live. With lighting shifts, the rhythmic plus of the audio and the motion and movement of the dancers. thank you for your time and the review of my work on this effort, very much appreciated on all counts... take care and cheers!

Another beautiful pasetel painting in your dancing figures range. I like the choice of colours again and I like how this figure's features are less stick-man like for this piece. The soft strokes of the pastels are really nice, I like the way you work.

    liL_luce,
    Salutations, the colors were inspired by the lighting and the movement of the figures, dancers across the stage... thank you for again looking at my work and commenting on it I appreciate your time and efforts in doing that for me on my work... take care and cheers!
    More dancing images to follow, keep an eye open for them.

This is rather lovely and I could see this on a BROCHURE for Dancing Poetry out of California. They are an international dance troop who dance out the theme and lines of a poem. You may want to send this their way as an offering. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Cheers, grassroots08

    Lucien,
    I have gone to the trouble of dropping the folks a note at Dancing Poetry on your behalf. I will let you know if there are any bites or nibbles. Cross fingers and toes. I was kidding, you can put those shoes back on now. Cheers, Don

Well done. Thanks for sharing.
