Object Description
This striking expressionist painting captures the graceful dynamism of a dancer mid-leap, her figure radiating energy and elegance. Her golden yellow dress flows with movement, as if frozen in time, while her arms are extended wide in flight, evoking freedom and exhilaration. The long skirts cascade in rhythmic motion, emphasizing her airborne grace.
The background is rendered in a cool, muted green, applied with broad, textured brushstrokes that create an atmospheric contrast against the vibrant figure. Bold interplay of light and shadow defines her silhouette, adding depth and emotional intensity to the scene. The contrast between the warm yellows of the dancer’s form and the cold green background enhances the visual tension, drawing the viewer’s eye to the intricate detailing of her movements.
This original acrylic on canvas embodies the raw emotion and beauty of dance, captured in a powerful yet delicate form. The artwork is signed and ready for display, available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea, and also online.
