AM – Letters from Louise & Mrs. Ellers.
P.M – in studio making drawings on the new portion of “Cicada Woods”– it begins to grow in interest & power– I am getting excited about it.
Evening — Mart & Hank, Peggy & David in for a visit– Mart brought along two of her recent watercolors— both very good– one showing a new trend in her subject matter the other one she had thought “hopeless” and did not finish but we disagreed with her- a minor charge, and it will be a good one–
