The theme to the Tannery show in October is Music in Me where the artists will interpret a favorite piece of music in a square format. I chose Dancing in the Dark because I love the beat and it makes me want to dance. It has such an upbeat tempo. The painting is 24 x 24 framed and is acrylic on rice paper. If you keep looking at the images, your eye will see them turn from front to back and front again. Enjoy!
Jim and I occassionally go back over older paintings. We added thickness and texture to the dolphins to give them a life of their own. It is as if the dolphins are dancing.
Jim and I are creating new pieces for the Georgia Aquarium Aqua Vino's silent auction. Go to www.georgiaaquarium.com for details about the Aqua Vino 2010 in October.
