Arabesque Movement – Ballet Dancer Art Print

Description

Arabesque Movement – Ballet Dancer Art Print by Mark Tisdale.

This ballet dancer art print features the arabesque movement or position. The arabesque is a classic movement or position in ballet and can take some slightly different forms. This artwork was a request from a customer and one that I completely enjoyed tackling. Although I lack any sort of coordination worth mentioning I admire the grace of ballet dancers. It clearly takes much practice and perhaps some innate grace as well. I also admit that I can’t put names it steps and movements but once I saw this move illustrated I knew I had seen this position many times before. Definitely a classic!

What attracts you to this ballet artwork? The lavender or violet colors? The graceful form? Perhaps you are a ballet dancer yourself or you are shopping for someone who is or aspires to be? I hope you’ll share your thoughts.

The dancer in this scene is based off a photograph by photographer, Kenny Johnson. His work is used here under a creative commons 2.0 license. You can see the work attributed here.
