As far as the white pants are concerned, don't you think it's time for a male corporate clothing revolution? Haven't we had enough dull navy or gray suits? Women portrait artists, I challenge us to demand more interesting male sartorial choices for our subjects!

Here's one of the paintings I sketched on a recent visit to the National Gallery in London. It's Sir Joshua Reynold's "General Sir Banastre Tarleton." The subject was not nice to Americans during the Revolutionary War ( including an attempt to pick off Thomas Jefferson) but I love Reynold's dramatic painting of him.
