How about a lesson on portraits? showing "slice of
life"? or hats of our time? I really like the Girl
with Red Hat. There are many other showing head wear
from Vermeer's time.
I posted a contemporary artist with a passion for
Vermeer. I found another artist who does Vermeer too.
Let me know if you are interested and I will post
these two artists again.
I will be adding these Vermeer links to my Artists/Art
Styles page --- soon - but save them now if they
interest you.
