Hummm

Well, the point remains that Sargent NEVER painted from memory, nor imagination (apart from what he could see or set-up) and seldom any photos. Life life life!-working from life for lively paintings.

I don't want my work to look like those artists who have painted from memory. The list of artists who never did is a far better list I think and is comprised mostly of illustrators. I'd prefer to been one the list with Hals, Rembrandt and Sargent.
