It goes to show you that artists traveling the globe to find compelling subject matter may often be overlooking the more insightful subjects found all around them. Sargent did travel and he painted what inspired him but what this painting demonstrates is the ability to create a dynamic work of art in any given circumstance.Paul Casalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13204733807028857703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2175030170264814638.post-67274546145760929432011-07-12T09:33:24.728-07:002011-07-12T09:33:24.728-07:00Well said, Keep it simple!Well said, Keep it simple!Harrison B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00339158373728206116noreply@blogger.com
