I LOVE portraits and I can see what you love in this one. I have always loved John Singer Sargent... the Cincinnati Art Museum has one of his huge portraits hanging there and I would just stare in awe as a child. I have amazingly never been to the Portrait Gallery in D.C. so it's now on my "must do" list!!! And any time you want to smell oil paint, just come by my house! Melissa.. I just love how creative you are!!!Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02529749426074359749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356332869012029488.post-69734650297411033992008-03-17T11:47:00.000-07:002008-03-17T11:47:00.000-07:00BEAUTIFUL!
