JOHN SINGER SARGENT

I have been giving a number of watercolour workshops this summer as well as my weekly class. During these we have revisited the work of John Singer Sargent as well as that of W M Turner & Cotman. Tuner is quite well known here in France and some paintings are currently on show at the Château Musée at Dieppe. We came across this archive of Sargent's watercolours at the Metropolitan Museum, New York. It is well worth a browse.
John Singer Sargent
His work is really fresh and vibrant. He devoted his last years to the medium, a complete change from his society portraits.
