Medium: Watercolor on paper
Dimensions: 10.25in. h x 11in. w
Description:
"In my own case my father dreamed up a cartoonist's career for me although he wanted me to acquire a scientific education as a backlog. He sought out every opportunity to show off my ability to his friends and gave me confidence in my one gift standing in good stead after his early death... Thus an art career appeared to be the only course open to me at the age of seventeen, yet I had no real comprehension of its difficulties, purposes or meaning as a public service."
