Sketching on Location at
the Dutch Dance Theatre

preliminary sketches

At the beginning of 1992 Marlies Vonk became fascinated by ballet and modern dance. During many months she studied and sketched moving figures of the classical trained dancers at some of the world’s top ballet companies such as the famous Martha Graham Ballet Company in New York and the renowned 
Dutch National Ballet in Amsterdam.
 With special permission of Artistic Director Jiri Kylián she also attended many rehearsals and performances of the celebrated Dutch Dance Theatre Group. 
Unique sources of inspiration
 that resulted in an impressive collection of expressive paintings, watercolors and stone prints (handmade by artist) and … more than ten ballet-art-exhibitions in Europe and U.S.A.
