Luminescent Ballerina

She offers a mesmerizing display of grace, movement and strength. She is at once, evocative and innocent, powerful and delicate, and always dazzling, even in repose. Palette knife painting directly on the canvas, in combination with a brush, because combining heavy texture that only a knife can create with applied brush transparent paint gives my work a greater feeling of depth and creates an amazing visual effect. Painted on 3/4'' thick gallery wrapped canvas using highest quality artist oils. Painting continues around the sides making framing optional. This painting would make a great addition to any art collection.
