and it feels to me as if capturing a magical sort of dance

Great original brown and orange paint

A perfect gift for a dentist

The underside of the lid shows some greening of the copper

Girl in Chair with Long Arms and Intense Gaze, Antique Child's Graphite Drawing cut paper sihouette and it feels to meThis one I found along with another, just listed, signed by a young Maud Ryan in 1900, and I'd guess Maud drew this one as well. While drawn with a bit of a light hand, for me this has a wonderful intensity about it looks to me like this girl's eyes could burn holes straight through whatever she was facing! I really love the rendering of her exposed wrist, too conveying a sense of sleeves too short for the ever lengthening arms of a growing girl.
