Ballet is a devotion reserved for those with unwavering perseverance, as it is only through relentless training that one can achieve the grace required to balance on such a tiny platform. Those who have attempted this art form understand the rigorous training needed to relevé, or rise from flat foot to en pointe, often with one leg extending gracefully in the air before transitioning into continuous pirouettes. A dancer's journey demands the full effort of their body, making the seemingly effortless moments on stage the result of countless hours of dedication and many worn-out shoes.

This original oil painting by Napa Valley artist Gail Chandler, titled "En Pointe," captures the essence of this devotion. Measuring 8 x 24 inches, the artwork features a well-worn stack of pointe shoes, symbolizing the investment and commitment required to enter the world of dance. "En Pointe" arrives on stretched canvas, ready to hang unframed, offering a poignant tribute to the passion and hard work of young, developing dancers.
