A sketch of a ballet dancer # 1

this is the first of a series of watercolour sketches of ballet dancers, I feel it is a good idea to do sets of paintings, as I am focused right now on faces and characters of old men, who I see when I am downtown, and the graceful movements and shapes of the dancers I meet at the theatre

Another old man passing by when I was downtown, his face is full of character and dignity as only old men can be, they are such wonderful and intersting people to capture and paint, let alone talk to...

my life is divided between daners and theatre, and going downtown to buy stuff for the theatre costumes... the thing is, I am eternally drawm by both and inspired to paint them

this is one of the amazing and very interestng people who are there, daily, they sit by the sidewalk watching paople pass by while their sons work in the shops

Firstly, I like to thank everyone who thinks my blog is worth visiting or following...  and those who leave comments ... I am always visiting you but, most times I don´t have time to comment...

I did this one without a prior sketch, and took me like half an hour to finish, so I think of it as a warm up exercise, when I do a piece of fruit it takes much less time than that..

15" by 11 1/2" watercolour on paper

I focused here on some details and faded a few areas to add interest and to give the illusion of movement as she is dancing and literally flying...I hope you like it...
