This painting is a story about feeling exuberant. These vibrant colours exude happiness and make you feel like dancing for joy! Painted with many layers of rich and wonderful colours and pearlescent glazes on a background of pure white with the sides painted white. It is part of a collection called Musical Manuscripts which capture the emotions of song in the medium of paint. This painting is inspired by the Leo Sayer song “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing” and I listened to the song as I painted and tried to capture a feeling of fun. It is recorded on the National Register of Australian Art and Artists as proof of provenance. Registration number will be provided. If you feel like owning a slice of happiness this could be the painting for you!

Artist Profile
Born: 1955
Hometown: Warrandyte
Based in: Melbourne
Myra is an abstract artist with a passion for colour. She enjoys creating vibrant and textural works of art. Through the use of colour and form, she seeks to connect with others by expressing emotion through her art. Originally from Scotland, she now lives in Warrandyte, Australia surrounded by birds and wildlife. Myra likes to work intuitively, enjoying the interplay of different textures and colours on the canvas. She is excited by the dynamic unpredictability of abstract painting and enjoys the physicality of working on larger pieces.
Myra has had her work exhibited in a number of art shows, galleries and corporate spaces including the Victorian Office of the Solicitor General.
