Original artwork description:

I began a wonderful collaboration with a ballerina called Laura Psy and began a series of studies based around her feet in ballet positions. What drew me to work with her, as well as the beautiful movement she creates with her body, were the unusual ballet shoes she wore. Rarely to I get to indulge in such strong and bold colours.
This is another of my ballet series, in which I'm playing with texture, movement and shape. I'm endlessly amazed at the strength and skill in ballet, here I'm examining the feet on pointe. These smaller works take a dozen or so hours.

They are framed in solid custom made framed, 55 ml wide painted light gray with a clip on the back to hang.
