Sean recently had the opportunity to show some of his ballerina paintings {First Ballet Slippers is one of my all-time favorites}at the premieres of Napa Valley Ballet's Jeux D'Enfants and Romanza.
The evening inspired him to paint this recent work titled, La Rose. I love how he captured the Principal Ballerina's repose so beautifully.
**La Rose, a 28 x 40 inches oil on linen painting is for sale. If interested, please contact melissa@reverie-daydream.com

ReplyDeleteOh Mel,
ReplyDeleteSean has excelled himself here. What a beautiful painting. When I first saw it, I thought you were going to say it was one of the Masters ....honestly.
What a talent your husband is. XXXX
Stunning.
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteThis painting is stunning. I love the way he captured the light and the shadows -- and even her movement though she's still. Your husband is wildly talented.
ReplyDeleteIncredible! What an exquisite talent he has. XO and xo
ReplyDeleteHow proud you must be of your talented husband. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSean is a true artist. He amazes me how he captures the mannerisms of his subject. As we know his gift is rare. Have a good week dear friend.

ReplyDeleteI love your husband's photography and artwork....you are a talented family! :) I love the shadows and the movement in this one...though she is still, you can almost FEEL her energy, anticipate the next move. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking. I love the light and dark, the contrast is lovely. And I agree with Anait, I can feel the movement in the shadows. I would have loved to have seen the entire exhibit. Someday.

ReplyDeleteThis painting is beautiful. I love the soft blurred lines mixed with the light and shadows- center stage all alone stilled in a graceful pose.
ReplyDeleteIt won't be too long before Gaia's ballet movements are captured in oils and linen.
I enjoyed our talk as well. We do have so much in common! Yes, a once a month chat would be lovely. I hope your week is going well.
