| Dancer with a Scarf, Sarah Myers Charcoal, white charcoal, red conte and pencil on brown paper |
Here is a
dancer with a scarf. The folds of her robe and the folds of her
scarf ripple across the air in hurried curves as she sways to unheard
music.
This sketch was
inspired by Renaissance or Mannerist art which shows dancers holding
scarves or ribbons – images that were in their turn inspired by
late Roman art. My vision grew more modern as I drew, lines
scattering over the paper to portray the quick movement of body,
cloth and expression.
