“I studied, exhibited and even sold some of my paintings. My time was divided between classes, my flat and the job of substitute caretaker of an art gallery run by my sponsor, Peter Class. Of course, every time I sold a painting, I’d use the money for a trip to the Continent.” - Preview of Bermuda, March 8, 1961. “I do painting every day. That is I do some serious work every day. I take a sketch book everywhere [and paint]—a horse and carriage, boats at the flagpole ... I have paintings all over the United States, in Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Denmark, Germany.” - The Royal Gazette, May 28, 1961 “The only place since leaving Europe that changed my whole outlook on art was Haiti. I was greatly impressed that I was able at the time to exploit my training to the full and depict the things that I saw done there.” “I even rent out boxes of paint. So many times visitors to the island come here and say: ‘If only I had my paints.” - Fame magazine, March 1962 |
