Pastel on paper
Signed on the front.
"Red Flame" combines charcoal and pastel mediums to depict the powerful and vibrant movement of a dancer. The unique technique of using negative space, inspired by traditional Chinese painting, adds depth and complexity to the layers of the dancer's flowing skirt, while charcoal defines the structure and offers a subtle contrast, pastels bring out vibrancy and rich details, especially in the dancer's expression and costume. This creates a dynamic interplay of light and colour, allowing the piece to embody the dancer's elegance and fiery spirit.
