Ballerina Pink
ballerina pink, 2011, acrylic on canvas, 200 x 158 cm
I finally completed my latest confection. Why am I suddenly in the mood for cotton candy?
this is one of my favorite ballerinas. she's so engrossed in her own world, dancing to the music in her head
these are ballerinas from the rough side of town. some of them are bloody and some are bruised. but they all love to dance and feel pretty in their pink tutus
i like the way this patterned painting looks with my patterned rug
Oddly, they remind me of the Emperor Qin terracotta army.
I very much appreciate this work and your comments correspond. Whimsical. Your work is deeper, more interesting than I first imagined.
Thanks.

Riven, my son and I were sitting on the sofa looking around at my paintings and he said, “Mama, there’s more meaning in your work than you know.”
