Hello Friday! Not feeling so good today. Trying hard to feel better. Got an abstract on the easel I need to finish and thinking about the show I have coming up in January. I have at least the next three paintings already planned out in my head! Really tired though.

  Today's Featured piece is:  In The Moment

This piece is a mixed media piece. A collage with a painting, if you will. 

The colors in this piece are brown, white, black, and gray. The ballerina is dancing her way down the  musical staff.

I am not real sure where these paintings come from. This is my third mixed media ballerina. I just really like these pieces. I also have two gears, mixed media pieces. One day I just felt like doing this and it snow balled into these pieces. They are interesting and different. That makes them special. I happen to love the way the human body moves in dance and the beauty of a dancers body. I think the obsession with ballerina's is when I was a little girl I wanted to take ballet so badly! I never got to and still regret it to this day. I would always look at the ballet slippers at the shoe stores and dream. Maybe I should buy me a pair to hang on my wall and dream about. What do you think? Till then I will continue to paint ballerinas and dream. I think that is where a lot of my paintings come from. Dreams of all the things I wanted to do as a child. I wanted to take art classes too. I never did however but at least i achieved that dream on my own. I also taught myself to play the piano.... another dream and well I could go on and on but for now, I will be quiet =D
