Tide of Duende

£1,296.00

Being a dancer, movement was something I wanted to incorporate into my paintings.

The basics to our existence are the five elements (Earth, Wind, Fire, Water & Ether).

Flamenco was a style I always found really intriguing. Each step is done with so much strength, weightlessness, passion, fluidity & grace - then the idea came to incorporate the two.

This painting explores flamenco through the element of water, where movement becomes fluid, emotional, and instinctive. The dancer’s form merges with flowing rhythms and shifting currents, capturing a sense of motion that is both controlled and surrendering. Water becomes a metaphor for feeling—unpredictable, immersive, and deeply alive—reflecting the emotional depth at the heart of flamenco.
