Description:
Produced in cooperation with dancer Natalie Laruccia (Thanks Natalie).
Embraced in the The Passion of Tango, the Latin dancers perform their 'Tango Argentino' intimately, only for themselves, oblivious to their surroundings...
Painted entirely with a knife. A high level of contrast is provided and the colours made extremely rich, bold and lustrous, thus creating a very contemporary feel overall.
It's a large, very dramatic, passionate, emotive, moody and atmospheric figurative dance painting that would not look out of place as a feature in a lounge, study, office, music room, conservatory, bedroom, hall, landing or similar room and be a focal point to be proud of.
Contact myself for more information about this beautiful work of art, or if you would like to purchase it. Obviously, the quality of the original painting and prints is much better than displayed here, though if you wish to make a closer inspection, please let me know of any specific area you're interested in and I'll e mail a higher resolution image to you.
Shown below is a photo of it in a frame for exhibition purposes, though the frame can also be purchased at an additional cost if required. Unfortunately, the picture quality isn't so good due to camera limitations...
