This painting was created to embody a statue I encountered when visiting the grave of a loved one. These striking monuments commemorate loved ones who are no longer with us. We are lucky to have the chance to live and experience life, which is why it is so hard to watch someone leave and eventually leave it ourselves.

Original Size: 20″ x 16″

This painting features a lone ballerina dancing in a brick subway tunnel. Jeff was inspired by the original reference photo because he liked the intensity of the dark and hardened background; in contrast there is a bright and ethereal quality to the appearance and form of the ballerina. The ballerinas outfit is made of a translucent and lofty costume which is detailed in delicate layers of titanate cream and titanium white.
