About this work
A ballerina dressed as the White Swan sits on the floor, her legs tucked beneath layers of white feathers and tulle, one hand raised to touch the plumage at her chest. She wears a jeweled tiara over dark hair pulled back, her pointe shoes resting loosely on her feet, and she turns her head over her shoulder toward the viewer with a calm, steady gaze.
Warm flesh tones and the bright white of the costume stand out against a smoky backdrop of blues, greens and violets, brushed in broad, soft strokes that dissolve into shadow at the edges. Thicker, textured paint builds up the feathers and tulle, while the face is modeled more smoothly, giving the figure a quiet, contained presence within the loosely painted, atmospheric space.
