The first night I slept on the sand a thousand miles from any land with people.
I was more isolated than a sailor on a raft in the middle of the ocean.
So you can imagine my surprise, when a funny little voice woke me up in the morning.
It said, “Please, draw me a sheep!” “What?” “Draw me a sheep!”
I jumped to my feet as if I was hit by lightning. I looked around.
And I saw a very unusual little man who was looking at me very seriously.
This is the best picture of him which I later was able to make.

It’s not my mistake. I was stopped in my career as a painter by the adults at the age of six.
And I never learnt to draw anything, except snakes from the outside and snakes from the inside.
I looked at this little man with my eyes full of surprise.
