Description
Flamenco is a genuine Spanish art form, or, to be more exact, a genuine Southern Spanish art. It exists in three forms: el cante, the song, el baile, the dance, and la guitarra, the guitar playing. Gypsies are often credited with the "invention" of flamenco, and it is at least certain that they played an important part in its creation. But the popular songs and dances of Andalusia also had a major influence on early Flamenco.

Beautiful composition, Vel! Vibrant and full of movement like Flamenco! F&V, May Ling.

Vel, I appreciate the flamboyant colors and shapes in this image - so reminiscent of the music and dance itself. Also, notable is the concentration of the dancer at the center of the art - both the art of the dance and this work. voted

In your great composition you show it all what makes the soul of flamenco - v/f - Dagmar

gorgeous piece! love the symbols and poetic feel I get from this... words and stories coming out from it. (sorry for my limited English. I wish I could express myself in French to keep the real meaning of my thoughts)

Thank you for the kind words Aimelle. Your English is much better than my French!
