Nancy, what a brilliant expression of the 'duende' (deep song) of flamenco! I love how you have captured the pure essence of the music/emotion in this superb work. I studied and taught flamenco for many years, even performed back in the day. Finding this work in your galleryhas taken me back to some of the best years of my life; thank you! l/f
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
How wonderful that I have struck an old chord! My best friend in college was a music major and I can still hear her strumming that beautiful acoustical guitar! She introduced me to the world of Sebicus and Montoya and we had the albums etc. So when my son.s sweetheart sent me this video from Barcelona of flamenco, well, I was transported as well.

Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
You are making my day beautiful, Vivian. I go back and forth liking this new "skill" and then not thinking it is "fine art"....ah, how we dissect each move we make. Your praise was just what I needed!! You are such a friend!!!

So happy you like this one. It was certainly fun to paint with a cloning tool in Paint, Windows 7!
