'For the water-colourist who works out of doors there are trials and tribulations, but always compensating delights. At some seasons his fingers become numb and his feet froze. Yet even as the frost lays its icy touch on the countryside, the artist, becoming more sensitive to its influence, may unconsciously convey its effect more truly ...
At other times the high wind will flap his paper, gnats may sting and children distract.'
