I've never cared much for this, but it can certainly be considered classic. There was a comedy show in the 1970s, Monty Python; one of their classic scenes was 'Upper Class Twit of the Year'. This is possibly/probably a false perspective on my part; however, I'm not going to delve into the issue....

I myself much prefer some of Sargent's Italian art work. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 'Rosina Ferrara (1861–1934) was an Italian girl from the island of Capri,[1] who became the favorite muse of American expatriate artist John Singer Sargent.

Portrait of Madame X, by John Singer Sargent. A portrait painting by John Singer Sargent of a young socialite named Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau, wife of the French banker Pierre Gautreau. Lots of scandal...

Madame X or Portrait of Madame X is the title of a portrait painting by John Singer Sargent of a young socialite named Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau, wife of the French banker Pierre Gautreau. Madame X was painted not as a commission, but at the request of Sargent.[1] It is a study in opposition. Sargent shows a woman posing in a black satin dress with jeweled straps, a dress that reveals and hides at the same time. The portrait is characterized by the pale flesh tone of the subject contrasted against a dark colored dress and background. so?. scandal, etc...


The detail, right, shows her face, profile; one could see her in later life as "wicked witch of the north".

I am a realist at heart, and enjoy interpreting realistic motifs in color and mood. My style includes traditional methods applied in a casual-realist manner usually a relatively thin underpainting, and using transparent glazes to enrich colors and shadows. Recently I have also been doing some new prints and paintings as mixed-media on paper and as direct original digital images.
