"I came away from him with some
painted studies and a few watercolours. They are not masterpieces, of course,
yet I really believe that there is some soundness and truth in them, more at
any rate than what I've done up to now. And so I reckon that I am now at the
beginning of the beginning of doing something serious. And because I can now
call on a couple of technical resources, that is to say, paint and brush,
everything seems fresh again, as it were."
In the same letter he wrote:
"I wish you could see the two
watercolours I have brought back with me, for you would realize that they are
watercolours just like any other watercolours. They may still be full of
imperfections, que soit, I am the first to say that I am still very
dissatisfied with them, and yet they are quite different from what I have done
before and look fresher and brighter. That doesn't alter the fact, however,
that they must get fresher and brighter still, but one can't do everything one
wants just like that. It will come little by little."
