On a certain day a stagecoach ran
along the winding slopes of a hill.
Somewhere along the road was hidden
among the bushes and tall pine trees
a mysterious cottage of someone's dreams.
All along the road were strewn
the leaves of autumn and shades of
the coming season in the clouds
of a grey sunshine.
"Slow down please", someone said to the coachman driving with sleep in his eyes.
"Slow down please, for I have made a tryst with Time, and this is the day
and the hour has struck.
Let me get off and leave the track.
I can see the home huddled in the green,
and that's where I had started to go."

- ...a pouring rain of impressions sensations, unique emotions, displayed spontaneously on the canvas. Vivid color filled with energy, bold, unusual brushstrokes!
His painting, like that of Gauguin, anticipates the big modern painting.
