Description

Painted in acrylics in order for it to be dry in time to make a deadline for a touring group show of aerial art for the Rogues Gallery. This painting has been to several British festivals in the circus space. The painting is varnished and in perfect condition. The layers of complimentary abstract marks are all created with a limited palette of just yellow, blue and magenta, with white. The style is a progression from my watercolours. The performer slowed down her aerial performance in order for me to nail the pose, she repeated it several times. I made this painting from an ink sketch from life.
