Just had a wonderful time in Theatre Clwyd , the Welsh National Ballet invite the public to sit in on one of their rehearsals to sit and watch , to take photographs or to sketch. Sketch is what I did . Oh my goodness fast and furious, they are on the move all the time. About a dozen dancers practising for their evening performance . So enjoyed it ,and warm and cosy in plush seats. This is ne of my sad efforts .

You've captured a lot of movement here Sylvia - I like it a lot. Bet you feel a little dizzy now!

Nothing wrong with that sketch; I'd be pleased with it in a live situation.

Ive done this before a couple of years ago and it is a bit over whelming. So any sort of shape that "happens" is a bit of a bonus. I think as artists we always think "Could do better"

Pretty darn good IMHO Sylvia. I have been invited to a similar event on Saturday and quite daunted, even more so now,

Looks good to me Sylvia, very envious of a wonderful opportunity to sketch such movement.

I think you've done very well with this Sylvia, it must be ever so difficult to capture a pose, well done.
