Having attended dinner clubs where dance instruction as well as unstructured dance took place, I was inspired to do a series of works based on dancing. The energy and motion of couples dancing, plus the image that they created, became the subject of ensuing compositions. The works are textural due to the mixed media employed in their creation. The media is high quality, chosen arbitrarily. and intuitively. The paper has a high rag content. My work is gestural keeping the image fresh and from becoming stagnant. The viewer will feel the movement of dancers in motion and become part of the process of transformation to a two dimensional surface.

Artists Statement Michael Kelly My drawing is a spontaneous response to what I see, initiated from reality. It is expressive, not a demonstration of facility. It is not a literal description of surface qualities. It is a search for a internal reality that validates an object’s reason for being. Energy, motion, and color are the key elements in order to achieve a balanced composition. My work is a process of discovery through deconstruction. This process allows me to dignify the presence of the subject that I am working from, rather than to characterize it. I maintain the aspect of the gesture in the approach to my work. This approach allows the drawing to live and to invoke a response. My drawing is usually mixed media, although, not exclusively. The media I choose is dependent on the composition and statement that is being made. I approach my work intuitively. My work is not formulaic. I succeed. I fail. I am the real deal. I have shown in numerous national and international competitions across the country and have been honored with juror's awards, people's choice awards, and first place awards.
