Might I Pointe Out.....

This piece was my first challenge in class. What it is..... a pair of pointe shoes (like in ballet) glued to a distressed canvas, with Nutcracker tickets, dried flowers (from one of my past ballet performances, yes I am a "ballerina"), and some fun swirly thingys and fleur-de-lis. The hisotry behind this piece is very personal. Those are my first pair of real pointe shoes that i got when i was like 12 or 13. So exciting! :) Super sentamental for me, so what a great way this was for me to capture the grace and joy of having them and how dance for me is in general.
