Rag Tag performing at Studio 1831, painting by Chris Carter

Chris Carter came to the hafla and painted some of the performers, as part of an ongoing study/series/experience/movement she calls Zakar. She’s in the process of scanning the paintings, and sent us this lovely one of Rag Tag in group formation. In full diclosure, she’s my Mom, and you should check out her site as well as her blog, she has some beautiful work up there. Lately I’m particualry drawn to her watercolors from her recent trip to France. Here is a link to some other bellydance paintings that she has done under the Zakar umbrella, mostly with the studio in Easton that she attends. (Dancers from Easton Yoga were also at Spring Caravn. I always find it fun to meet people through dance who have heard of or know my mother through her painting of dancers).
