About this work
A ballerina bends forward over a low wooden barre, one hand braced on the rail, the other reaching toward her pointe shoe ribbon. She wears a pale blue tutu over a dark bodice, hair pinned with a small flower. A vase of flowers stands on the floor beside her as window light crosses the shadowed studio.
Warm ochre and umber tones dominate the interior, set off by the cool grey-blue of the tutu catching the light. Loose, textured brushstrokes model the bent torso and skirt, while the background stays thinly scumbled to keep focus on the dancer's silhouette. The mood is quiet and absorbed, a private moment of preparation.
