to my Resin Bronze Gallery |
Resin Bronze Gallery - Dancer Dressing
The origins of
sculpture began in the bronze age. Today's
methods of cold casting creates a true work of art using an intricate
mix of bronze and resin. The highest quality casting requires special,
closely guarded skills. Hand crafted by scrupulous artisans
in the UK,
Peter's original sculpting is able to be retained so that the original
modeling may remain unchanged over the next 2,000
years. Each piece is certificated and personally signed by
the artist.

Evolution Of Dancer Dressing

Why the female
nude in bronze? read
here
I have a
daughter who dances at the Royal Ballet. The girl depicted is not her -
it is someone else. This piece is not a portrait so it doesn't matter
who it is.
It is the
feeling, the reflection which matters. There is a common truth - the
truth of adrenalin. My daughter loves attention - being center stage -
in the limelight. I hate it. My nerves don't allow. So I'm
curious. The odd thing is though that she gets nerves just before she
goes on, exactly like I would in the same situation - almost
to the extent of running away and not performing. But the show must go
on. So she goes on. Then loves it and wants more. If she were just
precocious it would be plain annoying. Bravery is about conquering fear
- not the absence of it.
Dance like no one's watching,
sing like no one's listening.
If
somebody,
whilst looking at my artwork gets that special feeling of something
personal, a flash of recognition, like a bolt of lightning, I'm
satisfied, my job done.
