Impression of Degas - Two dancers entering stage by Jeannette Harrison

Comments

You have been very busy! Lovely earth colours in the background against the white frocks looks really nice. Thanks for your comments, no I'm from the island of Malta and our temperature is up to 32 C (mind you it can reach much higher in summer).

A lovely painting as always, Jeannette. The background colours are perfect against the dancers. Thank you for your comments on my two last pics.

You must have posted this after I logged off the other day. Fantastic colours, maybe I should study Degas as I never quite know what to do with my backgrounds! I'm sure this will look stunning on your wall with the other two. Very well done, Val.

One more beautiful Degas painting of yours! I love the texture and colors. Thank you for your comment on my semi-abstract Jeannette. I do use fixative over the pastel drawing, only at the end and very lightly. Still wondering about it. I thought it would be easy...not at all.

A really lovely delicate but very warm painting.

I painted this for myself too. I just love his use of colour. Better than a poster. Nice to know one can get a little near him. Watercolour and pastel
