“It takes an athlete to dance, but an artist to be a dancer.” – Shanna LeFleur

Experience the exhilarating energy and movement captured in this stunning artwork titled "Village People". Two human figures, one male and one female, are depicted in a moment of dynamic motion, their bodies twisting and reaching in a celebration of dance and physicality.

Set against a backdrop of geometric shapes forming an abstract landscape, the figures stand out in their vibrant athleticism and grace. The juxtaposition of the human form against the angular, earth-toned background creates a visually captivating contrast that draws the viewer in. Celebrate the beauty of movement and the power of human expression with this unique and inspiring piece of art.

My mixed media paintings consist of acrylic paint and digital collage. They are painted on museum quality archival paper and then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and then framed in a black floater frame. Each piece begins as a digital study on an iPad where the basic composition and coloring is determined before the hand painted original is started.
