Below is a funny ballet video from the Vienna State Opera.  It's always a good time to laugh!

DEAD SHOES

8x10 Oil on Panel

I love ballet and all that goes with it.  My granddaughter, Lauren, is a ballet dancer and she hopes to dance in pointe next year.  In the meantime, she borrowed a pair of dead shoes (shoes that are worn out and can no longer be used) for me to paint.  I worked on two paintings and will post the other one soon, provided my computer will do its job.  It has been to the Genius Bar twice and is still acting a little crazy.

This short video tells a little about pointe shoes and how important they are to the dancer.
