I drew this a few years ago. The idea of sculpting her has haunted me since.  I recently became the owner of a freestanding ballet barre and will start her in the near future.  I have not decided on the material I will use but my plan is to use the  ballet bar in the piece. 

I drew the sketch from an underarmour advertisement featuring Misty Copeland. I like the advertisement because Misty's body language speaks volumes.  Not to mention that it  is not everyday that a ballerina is paid to promote athletic wear.
