Dear Artist, It's the last days of the John Singer Sargent show at the Seattle Art Museum and the place is standing room only.
Patrons jostle for a look while clutching audio-guides to their ears.
There's lots to talk about. People are in a state of excitement and awe. In this painting Sargent tackles sunlight on two white camp-tents. Light on the ruffles of the tents. Light through the transparency of a tent's canvas.
