A LITTLE ART AWARENESS

Researching dance art five years ago, I stumbled upon  this amazing piece by Laverne Ross. For me it was a breath-taking awakening into the world of African American Art.

There is a tone in this field of art that is distinctly descriptive in a way difficult to put words to. It achieves what art is designed to. It is emotive, appealing to the senses and emotion. Successfully delivered art can be challenging to describe.

Being an artist, I know that quality art arrives on the canvas, or in my case in clay, from the depths of one's being. It has a way almost of mastering the mind creatively emitting from core creativity.

The quality of Laverne Ross' work is brilliantly varied and leaves me speechless, making me catch my breath. 

Theme art is a personalized way to create inspiration and meaning in Living Spaces.

Deborah, This is absolutely gorgeous!  You always find a piece of phenominal art work to share.  I love the museums in NYC and spend a lot of time in them.

Very nice artwork Deborah. This piece reminds me of some of the angels I've bought for my oldest daughter when she was a child, so graceful. Thanks for sharing.

Carole - you are truly a blessed woman living so near one of the truly outstanding art centers of the world. I'm sure your creative jaunts around New York acquaint you with many venues of art. Think of me just a little one your marvelous adventures!

Debbie I agree entirely of course! This is a lovely graceful work by Laverne Ross - I've found it so enthralling - he's captured such 'lightness'. Is it your oldest daughter who is African American? Your daughters are lovely young women.

Hey Candy - It is a serene art representation, quite angelic, I agree. It is amazing to me, even though I am an artist myself, to imagine the painting of such fine work.

Beautiful piece Deborah.  As always, you are enlightening us "non artists" to the world of the real thing!

Kat is definitely a beauty Debbie! Is she the daughter that dances, or do they both dance? In the pictures these girls of yours appear to be just sweet spirited also.

Terry - I like sharing the things that are meaningful to me. I find art very inspiring - it speaks in ways that defy logic, appealing to a mysterious place inside, huh?

Deborah:  Beautiful artwork.  I love the flow of the dancers... it's wonderfully angelic .

It is a wonderful piece Jan - Laverne Ross has created such visual essence of floating lightness in line, movement and color. I could look at this and enjoy it a long time!

I had to come back and comment! I read this when you first posted it but was at a loss for words. This one piece has such a beautiful sense of motion. The subject of dance reminds me of Degas but the style is definitely not the same. I love the fluidity of the colors that are accented by the obvious motion of the subjects. Very nice!

So glad you returned Rich and found these eloquent words to describe this breathtaking piece of art, Angel Wings by  Laverne Ross. I understand being at a loss for words on this one in partucular - it has that effect -I had a hard time writing it - makes me tongue-tied! The movement and fluidity definitely are remarkable.

Deborah, Kat is a free spirt kind of a dancer, very hip, Megan is the latin dancer and she has really gotten good. Her partners are doing flips and all, I'm going to the next salsa night to watch.

That's so awesome for your girls to be dancing Deb. In my mind dance is so natural and inspiring. I've recently curtailed my tango lessons. My arm got cranked by a newbie and has triggered an old neck injury - 3 months later, it still hurts.
