My Heart Is Forever In

What Is It That's Taken Hold Of Me, For Me To Carry On Like This In Relentless Pursuit Of Something Beyond My Powers?

Impressionism Is Only Direct Sensation. All Great Painters Were Less Or More Impressionists. It Is Mainly A Question Of Instinct, And Much Simpler Than [john Singer] Sargent Thinks.

I'm Continuing To Work Hard, Not Without Periods Of Discouragement, But My Strength Comes Back Again.

I Haven't Many Years Left Ahead Of Me And I Must Devote All My Time To Painting, In The Hope Of Achieving Something Worthwhile In The End, Something If Possible That Will Satisfy Me.

All I Did Was To Look At What The Universe Showed Me, To Let My Brush Bear Witness To It.
