Sharon,
I am sooooooo enviuos! We have two painting of Sargent's here in Birmingham, one is a copy he did of a Hals painting and another is "Lady Helen Vincent". I was so awe struck the first time I saw it that I would visit the museum twice a week for two months and just soak everything in I could from this painting. I would make notes and go back to my studio and try different things. Visually it appears so simple. I know who to look up for a tour the next time I go to Boston!
