Sargent Redux
Deladier,
I too enjoyed your last post.
Re: the method of Sargent, I am no expert, but a book I do have said he would scrape out a head as many as 9 times. One lady posed for 6 weeks and he tore up the canvas and started again with a new one. The lady in question broke down in tears.
As to your study, the neck, on our left, seems too wide from the ear to the jaw. It also looks too far behind the ear.
Nice start though.
Sincerely,
