I Have Tried To Present My Sensations

I Once Got A Little Camera To Use For Details Of Architecture And So Forth But The Photo Was Always So Different From The Perspective The Eye Gives, I Gave It Up.

More Of Me Comes Out When I Improvise.

My Aim In Painting Has Always Been The Most Exact Transcription Possible Of My Most Intimate Impression Of Nature.
