Rosary with Madame X at the Metropolitan Sargent exhibit and also with Sargent's painting of the gorgeous poet Yeats. Amazing how Sargent knew and loved the greats: Yeats, Robert Lewis Stevenson, Ellen Terry, Rodin.  The bust is Rodin's version of Madame X.

Back in NYC after a splendid wedding and visit on Steppin Out on New Orleans TV. Looking forward to the John Singer Sargent exhibit at the Metropolitan where Sargent captures the faces of friends  written about in my play JOHN SINGER SARGENT AND MADAME X. Will look at the madam once again and see why they say the strap is painted back in. I have my own theory on this.
Can't wait to see John Singer Sargent exhibit at the Metropolitan. His new exhibit exposes so many secrets I wrote about in my play JOHN SINGER SARGENT AND MADAME X. After my visit  2 days ago to New Orleans I am seething with renewed interest.

Enjoying beautiful weather in NYC. Mary and Joey joined me and we sat in the patio and looked up at the trees and sky! Ah what a blessing to have a place in the West Village and to laugh with my two siblings on a July night..
