Clara and the Nutcracker Metal Ornament

I don't know when it happens, but at some part of growing up, whether we "like" ballet or not, Christmas has an immediate association with the Nutcracker Ballet. Being related to many ballerinas in my extended family, I know this to be very true!! As little girls many of us dream of being Clara and getting to dance with the Nutcracker. I wanted to capture some of that magic in this beautiful watercolor print. It is a nontraditional shot, because I wanted it to really focus on Clara and the Nutcracker, and not all of the external props or characters. I hope you enjoy this reproduction art piece and that it reminds you of the magical ballet, The Nutcrracker.
