A quick Edgar Degas bio

Edgar Degas was a French artist famous for his paintings, sculptures, prints, and drawings of ballerinas. He is regarded as one of the founders of Impressionism although he rejected the term, preferring to be called a realist. The subject matter of his work was often drawn from everyday life and comprises figures in casual poses or captured in movement.

Deborah Julian pays homage to Degas’ work with Ballet Class Visitor, her whimsical and unique interpretation of a cat in motion. The image captures the majestic grace of the feline form in its efforts to take part in ballet class – an example of dedication to one’s art despite being without formal training. With its vibrant colors and detailed brush strokes, the painting is sure to bring life and joy to any room. Julian’s work captures elegantly what Degas has so successfully portrayed: the essential beauty of dance in motion.

Whether it’s a classroom or living space that needs some jazzing up, this wonderful piece by Deborah Julian will be a great addition. The colors, the movement, and the subject matter are all elements that help create a dynamic and visually stimulating environment for all to enjoy.
