Dancing In the Dark  29 x 19

Artist’s Statement: I was delighted with a night photograph I took of a crystal cruet. The strobe images of contrasting bright lights and deep shadows, of sharp angles and soft folds punctuated with flashes of colour stirred my imagination. Here - wasn’t that the graceful swirl of a silver gown and there – a glimpse of gleaming patent leather! Add a little music – and there they are – Fred and Ginger – Dancing in the Dark.

Medium/Technique: Cottons, lamés, acetates and metallic threads, layered raw edge appliqué (Zappliqué)

Invitational Show: The Grand National 2007: Fantasy
