Art Show Entry - "Balance"

I did this little centaurina not long ago, and, decided she would fit nicely in this show on EBSQ. When I think of 'Balance', dance is one of the first things to come to my mind. I think to be a great, or, even just a modestly good dancer, one must have great balance. And, what of a creature such as a centaur, if they existed? I have seen people dance, and, I have also seen horses dance...performing exquisite feats of strength, grace, and balance. What a cumbersome and un-balanced physique a centaur must be! How could it possibly be graceful enough to dance? My little 4"x6" oil painting "Exotic Dancer" shows it is possible!

Dog Breeds - Yellow Labrador Retriever

I started this one a while back, along with a few other pieces for the differant projects, but, kept setting it aside to do other work, so, I finally finished it off. This is also an ACEO oil on birch, 2.5"x3.5". This is lifesized and a detail closeup.
