Sargeant Portrait

Recently, I enjoyed the opportunity to study the methods of John Singer Sargent and paint from a photo copy of one of his portraits. I chose the portrait of Mrs. Fiske-Warren and her daughter. My copy was a bit darker and more yellow than other prints I have seen, but the result was stunning regardless. The warm palette and rich dark background was very appealing to me. These new explorations into traditional oil realism has been a fun adventure. As a result, friends and colleagues have inquired about commissions. Please contact me if you are interested and I can give you more information and pricing. For a more affordable option, I offer graphite and charcoal drawings. My website will reflect this new work and prices by the end of January.
