"A colorful feast for the eyes with the motion of a sensual "fire-dance" of souls."

Loreena McKennitt- Tango to Evora
I love the virtuous music of this sensual melancholic highly intricate dance form, which seems so nicely to embrace my painting.
A Tango conjures counterpoint in many forms: sensuality, syncopation, seduction, sad longing and subconscious desires.
