I was privileged to be invited by Carlos Acosta, Royal Ballet Principal to capture him in rehearsal whilst starring in On Before. This is one of a series of paintings of the ballet legend capturing his passion, power and eloquence of dance. He was partnered by Royal Ballet Prima Ballerina Zenaida Yanowsky. All are in pastel on state grey paper.

Harmony in White, Ballerina Painting by Zoe James-Williams

New painting of a ballerina called Harmony in White. Recently on Twitter The National Gallery started a tag #PaintedDancers to ask followers what dance paintings were their favourite or were there any dance artists out there! Well it would have been rude not to partake in a conversation about #PaintedDancers. This and an Iana Salenko painting were added by me and it was lovely to get such a great response.

This was painted using mixed media including pastels. Unfortunately this is on nutmeg #MuranoPastel paper which #DalerRowney discontinued. I had to buy my local art shop Harrisons Stationers in the Uplands what was left of their supply. It's dwindling fast but I was pleased with the way this came out especially the skirt as I 've never painted one this big before!!
