O anjo solar, o outro das sombras e esse que vagueia nos crepúsculos, primeiro o da manhã, depois o do entardecer desenham sinais que sigo para chegar a ti. Joaquim Manuel Magalhães, Os Dias, Pequenos Charcos
“Although there is no specific place, nature is more ‘really’ present than in most representational paintings. It is because of the ‘reality’ of the details. The details, shaped like brushstrokes, have committed shapes, and the colors have committed texture, hue, and substance. They are not muddy, which has nothing to do with the presence or absence of browns or grays, but with their being clearly what they are. Miss Mitchell has been attentive to outside nature and her inner experience, and she gives you something real.”
