Worthy Of Fortune's Fingers.
SOLD $800. 840mm x 595mm. Graphite and acrylic. This dancer is drawn with a combination of exaggerated realism and simple outlines - ephemeral and solid at the same time.
The title is from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, when Malvolio is convinced to wear embarrassing clothes and behave strangely because he's been told it will attract his beloved's eye. If he doesn't do it, he will "be unworthy to touch Fortune's fingers." Dance like you don't care. Don't let anyone dictate your destiny. |
