Drawing - Colored Pencil
Description
This "painting" is drawn by PrismaColors colored pencils, and is of a male dancer in a warehouse practice studio, and he can so imagine performing before an audience that he can almost see them on the hill outside the window. Only the mirror at the end of the studio proves it is a dream ... about to come true! I want to thank free source Unsplash photographers Jeremy Bishop and Richard Stott for providing access to the two photos I used as "models" for this piece. I so appreciate their generosity! Searching for the name for this piece, I kept realizing I was also speaking to myself... on several fronts! Entered in Homage to Great Artists of the Past Contest as it reminds me of the type of work Norman Rockwell Excelled at, always clearly telling a story without saying a word!.

Such fabulous art my friend! And to me, the way he is 'moving' reminds me of Michael Jackson!! Inspired by a photo or not, YOU are speaking without saying a word, and it is so very beautiful!
