Today I present a watercolor copy of a John Singer Sargent oil portrait of Nancy Langhorne (1908), later Astor. I'm starting to like watercolors. Oil paint requires a big block of time, say three to four hours including preparation and clean up. Watercolors don't require that. I can produce a few drops of water, make one stroke and walk away. Sure the paint will dry, but it only needs to be rewetted. Arches, 11.5 x 15"
