Thank you all for this great input! I just really loved the colors in this one and the subject matter too! I must admit we took these very quickly to get her out the door and see now that I could have spent more time with the compostition. I asked her to sit again, and she said "NO WAY", then I said "Okay, I'll get Amanda to do it!" (her older sister) well that changed her mind!
Sharon, I think you must have done some photo styling with all the fashion illustration!
Now you'll have to take me to the furniture markets too! My house is very southwestern and that is one of the more formal chairs I own. I hope the pink chair is on your site so I can go see it. Or could you link it here?
I forgot to tell you when I looked a the bolts of velvet fabric, ouch it was so expensive, that I cheated and purchased this faux Ultra Suede, I think it works for $3.00 a yard!
Regarding the first post of suggestions, I spent forever going through my books and the internet, and the following is all I could find by Sargent. None that exactly matched your titles, I threw Lady Agnew in their because it is my favorite. Are these close to what you were thinking about?
I'll also post Holbein's Anne of Cleves.
