ballerina painitng by Gazelle Mka in Portsmouth

This monochromatic ballerina painting, crafted on a 50×70 cm wood panel, captures the elegance and movement of dance through the striking contrast of black and white acrylic paint. The textured surface of the wood subtly interacts with the paint, adding depth and character to the piece. Fluid brushstrokes emphasise the ballerina’s grace, while bold shadows and highlights sculpt her form, giving the artwork a sense of motion and drama. The limited palette enhances the play of light and shadow, evoking both strength and delicacy. Every detail, from the flowing tutu to the poised fingertips, is meticulously rendered, making this painting a dynamic yet timeless composition.
