The Joie de Vivre series is filled with iconic figures, sculpture that inspires us and brings our hearts to all that fills our lives with joy. Red Dress Quarter Life is just such a work, the young ballerina's magnetic smile exuberantly broad, one hand on her hip, the other flipping the layers of her skirts.
