| Dance Drawings |
Here is a selection
of drawings based on Frank’s visits to Donna
Grim’s dance classes during the 2003 –
2004 season. Frank observed and sketched over
thirty sessions of an advanced class at Dance
Unlimited. “Ten high school kids, and when
they came to class, it was with a sense of purpose
and dedication that is truly inspirational."
The first drawings from this
project were shown in a solo exhibition at Frederick’s
Weinberg Center for the Arts in October 2004.
More recent Dance Drawings were featured in Swing!,
at Frederick Community College in April 2005.
