Maria Miranda Lawrence - Dance and Music

Dance and Music

This oil painting entitled "Sueño" hangs over the family piano. It was composed and created from my photos taken of my daughter Kara while she was performing on stage in the Azores. This was her second invitation by the Azores government for selected dancers of Azorean descent who live outside Portugal. This time she was asked to collaborate with local dancers and to perform on three islands in the Azores. The program was called "Danças & Voltas com Sentido & Memória".

Waterfront Gallery, Granville Island, Vancouver B. C. Maria Miranda Lawrence, exhibition titled "Inspiration" featured many dance inspired painting. The exhibition spanned from September to the end of October, 2019.
