Artist Comments
A flowing, expressionist portrait of woman lost in dance and embracing the promise of a new day. "I created this painting as 2020 drew to a close and 2021 dawned," says artist Sumner Crenshaw. "This piece is all about stepping out of the darkness and into the light of hope and joy. The figure revels in the light around her, knowing she is stepping onto a better path."
