It is for that purpose,again,that I have bought a box of paints and some pencils.It is hard to take up drawing again at my age,when I have never made any pictures except those of the boa constrictor from the outside and the boa constrictor from the inside,since I was six.I shall certainly try to make my portraits as true to life as possible.But I am not at all sure of success.One drawing goes along all right,and another has no resemblance to its subject.I make some errors,too,in the little prince's height:in one place he is too tall and in another too short.And I feel some doubts about the color of his costume.So I fumble along as best I can,now good,now bad,and I hope generally fair to middling.
