Inner Sanctuaryby ~ryoung

Traditional Art / Paintings / People

Original oil painting produced on stretched 91cm x 61cm canvas using a knife, mixing only on the canvas using a limited colour palette.

There's many more figurative, dance and portrait fine art original oil paintings, pastels and signed gicleé prints on my website: R Young Art

Given 2010-05-03

~ryoung shares with us yet another breathtaking piece from a genre for which the artist is greatly renowned - Inner Sanctuary exhales a titillating murmur of palpability, where graceful definition throughout clearly accentuates the beauty of perfect physical coordination, and gorgeous application of chiaroscuro imparts an aura of dramaticism, devoting towards the pure essence of dance.

Hello!
I just came across your work while browsing the site and thought you may be interested in an art contest sponsored by www.talentcall.com. The winner gets $175... not sure of all of the details, my friend is involved in that website so I thought I'd let you know so you could visit the site and submit this piece - the competition is for Shadow Art... they also have other competitions

I think the human body is so interesting. Especially dancers. They are so beautiful, and the things that they can do is amazing. Ballet is so strong and moving to watch.
