Art that inspires...

Not all art inspires, but great art is always inspiring,
even if it is fitting for the season!
I love this...Edgar Maxence, " Soul of the Forest"...
beyond lovely!
 
 
Regardless, if I could spend time with any artist
throughout the ages, if I were asked,
it would have to be John Singer Sargent.
So I wondered, did Sargent ever paint angels?
 
While many of the women he painted looked like angels,
the only angel I could find in his work was an early study
he did after Goya, 1879.  "Angels in a Transept"..
 
 
In my opinion, everything he painted was magic...
