The
Moment 2010
by Paul Noonan
Pencil
& Acrlylic wash on board
I settled on
calling this picture 'The Moment' because, as I recall that day,
she was 'living the moment', she was 'in the moment'. All artists
experience 'The Moment'. For me it is when they are at their most
creative. It's when things happen that even the artist can't entirely
control or rein in. We seek 'The Moment'. The Dancer found it that
day.
A big reason
why I wanted to draw this portrait was the challenge of drawing
'that hair'. I have seen braided hair in classical style drawings
by the PreRaphaelites and the old Italian Masters and here was the
perfect opportunity to try my hand.
