TLF: "The theme of the snake (in my painting) was forcast by several extraordinary dreams... The snake entered my awareness of a radical change of conciousness coming my way; its arrival signalled individuation. - I married Patricia Randall en deuxième noces the same year..." [104, Schäfer/Witteveen, September 16, 2009]
TLF: "The observation of the snake’s patterns, reaching beyond its contours into the complicated mini-world of its surroundings, translated into pictorial terms meant: the consideration of the entire picture surface, instead of “foreground” and “background” spatial delusions." [105]
