About the Item
Artist Comments
A dancing lady throws her arms in the air with fervor in artist Libby Ramage's mixed-media piece. The work expresses the exuberance of a young girl in a flowing white dress. The uneven edges of the handmade paper and the laced glove suggest the scene is a remnant of past memories. "The hidden image of a boy on the left is from a book about Henri Rousseau," notes Libby.
