Lac des cygnes: ballerina painting

The iconic dance of the little swans reimagined in oil paint.

Medium: Original oil painting on linen canvas 

Dimensions: 12 by 9 inches (approx.)

Completed: 2020

Artist notes: My older sister learnt the cygnets dance and came home and taught it to me, although at the time I was a bit to young to master it. I love the opportunities their entrance presents for an asymmetric composition with lots of movement into the space.

This painting has a slightly textured surface.
