“My Chinese master keeps telling me:

‘Copy. Do copy. Repeat the same motives. No, you can’t revise anything. Careful! Too much water, again. Rice paper is ever so thin. Take two hours to observe, five minutes to paint!’

Oh, how I am fighting with my European hand!

In my painting class in Warsaw: ‘What, you haven’t started yet? Come on, use more water! Why would you leave so much white space? Take more colour. No need to worry, you can always revise what you don’t like.’

Ouch, my hand is too Chinese!”
