I created a number of gestural drawings in ink, charcoal and pastel of my dancers. To begin with, most of these featured a single dancer, like the Big Man series, or this strange one of a modern dancer pretending to be a winged insect.
After a while some of the dancers became twosomes.
I began to add some color to these, and environments. The two isolated child ballerinas now had a setting like a riverside in the spring.
The compositions became horizontal and began to include more than two dancers, like these three masked dancers on a road.
