About The Artwork
I was very drawn to this elegant lively Baroque dance performed by Svetlana Mednis to the beautiful music of the 17th century French opera Amide, by Jean Baptiste-Lully. My wife who likes to dance watched the videos I supplied and she undertook to repeat the steps in a cherished pair of red Anello & Davide red shoes. This I observed, sequentially photographed, made notes and drawings to produce this painting. The work consists of a Rowney Cryla acrylic base coat of burnt orange, then opaque pigments are used to lay down the undercoating of some of the subject matter. Then using acrylic paint in washes which has been thinned using diluted Liquidex airbrush medium. This layering of the work allows for subtle tonal attributes that give depth and intensity. The overall result is an acrylic painting with a degree of luminosity rather than the usual flat acrylic finish. The work will be for SALE when the varnish has thoroughly dried.

United Kingdom
Born in Gloucester and living and working in Cheltenham UK. I like to work in acrylic because it allows me to experiment, making changes quickly is paramount when wishing to explore your options. I suspect like most figurative artists I find drawing and painting the human form wholly embedded with human behaviour. The desire to secure more than a representation of a persons movement, the spilling of light over contours or the various other physical facets is the reason we continue to make paintings. To recast emotions in texture, colour and pattern and to make it still, perhaps this is a measure of a successful painting. I have sold work around the world, to individuals and organisations and have produced award winning public art (usually with a colleague) for various institutions.
