Dear Mr Carlen

Thanks for the magnificent photos of Pippin. I will surely use one of them. Am also grateful for the biographical material, but I'd like to have some up-to-the-minute notes in Pippin's own words on:
1 His attitude toward painting
2 His attitude toward COLOR
3 How he works
4 What he likes best to paint
5 What he thinks about other painters works 6 Does he even see any 7 Is he interested in the work of others 8 What are his painting aims etc etc.

I will use the smaller photo (Pippin painting the biblical scene against the purple skies) Will you please give me the information on: 
1 Name
2 when painted
3 Barnes Collection (?)
4 Pippin remarks about this painting
5 Any other material of interest.
