His enthusiasms were peculiarly Amer- ican, and were charged with vitality, fresh air and frankness. To his unusual natural gifts as an artist, were added an amazing sense of character, a unique sense of design strengthened by an instinctive sense of geometry, and an astonishing ability to express his feelings in black and white. The dramatic instant in life had a strong appeal for him; yet at times, he was capable of an almost feminine tenderness. He had wit, and never drew nor painted with- out it. He was human and humorous, adven- turous and unafraid. He was idealistic, and not untouched by the romantic. Above all, he had a heart and used it at all times.
