I've hesitated to post this painting because it is similar to another one I did recently, just smaller. But I really love this little painting - it's looser and more juicy than I usually do. Note to me - don't strive for precision, or what passes for precision with me, just let go. It's 7 x 5" on gessoed board.
Thanks so much for stopping by! SOLD

So tell me Connie - are you out there on the dance floor as well or only taking photos, or painting real fast?
Just discoverd your blog. I love your figures. Your dancers look like they're having fun, and so do you.
Connie, it's the BEST! I wonder at your hesitation. Great BG value adds to the sultry mood. The female dancer's head on his shoulder and her left leg's long stretch bring such life to it. And then the tender way he looks at her. Oh wait, this is tango. Not tender then, maybe something else. I could go on. I love it. All movement and mood.
VERY passionate! You've really captured the energy of the dance.
Thanks, Pam, for your nice comment. Yes, I think we're all having a good time!
Wow! Thanks Dale! I appreciate it!
I just sit with my small sketchbook and do quick gesture drawings. Since dancers move faster than I can draw, I just get bits and pieces, but it's enough. I'm not sure I would be allowed to take photos.
