November 1982
This is rather like Van Gogh, no? A bit lighter. We took the Werdyks to the Gemente and to the Mondrians (among many others) and I am again so impressed with his middle years – the purple tree, landscape, etc. I suppose an artist who lives 90 years is bound to change styles many times. Good to talk to you yesterday. Is it cold? We are still warm but windy.
