"All my drawings and studies of landscapes, birds or animals, of places visited or persons seen are reconstructed in the studio out of things remembered and little mnemonic notes. I have also been affected by their habit of sketching on small cards they kept in their pockets. Little leaflets of reminiscence. Of things seen or imagined. Or projected fantasies. Given as gifts, on occasions, with an inscription or greeting."
