Alex,

Just came across this one. Beautiful job! The surface is so rich and descriptive. And you have such a beautiful way of capturing atmosphere. Really lovely. I'm jealous!

David

Thank you, Patty! It's nice to hear.

Thank you, David--you are very encouraging. Ever since seeing Sargent's work in person, especially The Boit Children, I've wanted to figure out how he created atmosphere so well. Cecilia Beaux does it equally well, I think. It's that illusion of air that I'm always striving for.
