Florescent Dancer

After college I didn’t return to the dancing theme until I made this painting around 1993. I bought some florescent and iridescent paints at the art supply store after seeing a demonstration using iridescent paints. I thought the paints would work well with my dancing theme. One problem I ran into was that the iridescent colors need dark colors to be visible. When my fellow artists saw my painting they were very intrigued. They told me it looked like
a mummy.
