A critic once
said I made Frost look like an old farmer. Well, so much for
critics. To look like some sort of New England farmer would have
tickled Frost to no end! I don't always include hands in a
portrait, but Frost's were do restful. He had a beautiful little
rotund belly, like a Santa Claus. And that snow white hair. I
took a close-up during this sitting, but over the years it has
not weathered as well as this one. As a rule, I insist upon a
one-on-one relationship, but this was done in George Stewart's
home. He and Frost were great friends. Frost lived a very sad
and sorrowful life. There was a great deal of internal tragedy,
and that's what he and Stewart were talking about. It was a very
personal conversation. They knew I was ther, but I was like a
mouse in the corner.
