Thanks, Melanie!I am learning a lot from Degas, and will post about it some in the future.His figures are surprising the more you look.
Nice. Love that warm burnt-orange and the simplicity."At the bar"--I was expecting to see vodka--I think it's supposed to be "barre" for ballet. ?
I looked it up, Jala, since my knowledge of both French and the ballet are next to nothing. Lucky for me, the spelling in American can be "bar." Whew.I totally ripped the colors from the master's drawing. OTOH, the brown (Burnt Sienna, I want to say) is a jumbo pastel that I made myself.
