"Capoeira 1"

Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics and music, and is sometimes referred to as a game. It's as fluid of a motion as I've ever seen. The Santa Barbara Brazilian Carnaval had demonstrations of Capoeira in 2008 and 2009, and this is the first of three paintings I did. I like the checkerboard floor with the other capoeiristas watching, playing instruments and clapping in time.

PaulB's Pointillistic/Impressionist original oil paintings of Capoeira and various prints and poster formats of a wide variety of subject matter by the Pointillistic/Impressionist oil painter from landscape/waterscape paintings, dance, sports, portrait, to classical figures, flowers, rock and roll, Brazil, and Capoeira paintings and prints are available for purchase for as little as $24.95 for an 8" x 10" matted print on photo pape. Pointillistic/Impressionist Giclee prints of Capoeira on real canvas or heavy watercolor paper are available. One of a kind Capoeira embellished prints, which are Giclee prints retouched in genuine oil paint by PaulB. Unless noted PaulB's original Pointillistic/Impressionist oil paintiings are oil on canvas.
