They Dreamed and Danced

I await joyous surprises while working, an awakening of the materials that I work and that my spirit develops. ~ Odilon Redon

I’m feeling a little Redon in the studio right now, both in color and application of paint. I didn’t intend to paint ala Redon. in fact I just recognized it this afternoon. This painting that I’m working on is about dance and painting. With painting I want to capture what they were conveying in their dance; the inspiration, tension, joy and generosity. I’ve struggled a little bit, but it’s getting there.
