After a long week of rehearsals, today is Kiddo's big day of dance performances. This morning was the huge recital with over a hundred dancers ranging from age 2 to adult. Kiddo performed in one tap, one jazz, and three modern dance numbers. I managed hair, make-up, and costume changes. This is Kiddo's seventh year of dance so she received her third trophy and a tiara.The sketch above is with brown colored pencil and water color pencils in my hand.book journal. We have a few hours to rest before the ballet tonight, Alice in Wonderland. It should be magical.
these is lovely :D great soft colour. really looks like you could touch the page and feel the slippers
ReplyDeleteI am sure the ballet is as magical as your drawing :)
ReplyDeleteIt's so soft and smoothly done. The shadings and shadows are excellent!
Beautiful, Ann! Really evocative!
ReplyDeleteLovely. You can just see the stories these slippers could tell.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from a fellow edim'er! Lovely piece, the colours are so soft. Definitely seems to be recital season around the traps.
ReplyDeletesWEEt! I love the way you've blended the colours so softly.
ReplyDeleteYou did a terrific job on the shoes. Wow.
ReplyDeleteMy granddaughter took a class of ballet due to her gymnastics. She looked so graceful but she wants to stick with gymnastics. It's good too but not as pretty to see as ballet and she earns medals rather than tiaras.
Beautiful ballet shoes - I can almost feel the buttery soft leather.
ReplyDeleteIt is the day of the dance for you! Wow. Such wonderful talent all around! Yippee!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a busy week! Beautiful rendering of the shoes. Oh to be young again. I could use some help with my clothes, hair and makeup! :-)
ReplyDeleteThere is just something about the composition and the softness of this that I just love.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dancing slippers! :)
ReplyDeleteTruly beautiful work, so soft and delicate!
