"It is very important to
know that color changes
according to the ground
on which it is painted. I
always paint a dark red
coat under everything that
must be green like trees
and meadows. I paint the
ground of bricks and tiles
dark green and the ground
of skies warm yellow-
orange. This is the negati-
ve of the finished painting."
