Concentration

So for my concentration i was thinking about something along the lines of each piece representing the emotion or style of a different style of dance - ballet, tap, jazz, Broadway etc. - but not necessarily drawing the dance or the dancers just trying to evoke the emotion of it. So i began to write lists of words for each style to describe them and i realized that all the lists had one thing in common, they that seemed to contradicted themselves - although if a dance looked at it they would make perfect sense - but such things as ballet being both dainty and powerful didn't make sense to some people i showed my list to. This made me think that maybe i could take it to the next step, because emotion is hard to portray simply, but i could focus on the dynamics of the movement and how all the styles have some kind of push and pull, a perfect balance of structure and freedom. :) thats all i have for now. Although i have no actual art ideas, im sure something will come to me.


Also this weekend was the jazz tap review and Nutcracker at my studio, super fun :)
