2 - I am not surprised that your new colors are arousing international interest.
I have seen a number of magazine articles thereon myself and I am not a prolific reader. I
have no time at present.

You idea of a colored netting is interesting, Long ago in Paris I used various colored
veilings to get some Whistler effects. I don’t see exactly how you intend to use it. I
suppose you would like to tone down my murals. Time and dust generally do that all too
rapidly — however I will be glad to go into the matter with you. Experiments always interest
me —

It has just occurred to me that if [Hanoi?] can make a [br?sh] mural with your
colors. I might be able to incorporate some of them in these two murals — I would like to
try them. I use a chalk absorbent ground of my own composition which is perfectly [wat —]
and on my best work I use only a palette knife — no brushes — but, of course, the medium
must flow somewhat —[?] colors intermingle in a broken way. It ought to be worth while
experimenting with - Will you send me a complete set of your colors? in a sufficient quantity
to cover the two murals — yellows most used — If you will do this, please let me know at once
so I can work with that in view — Don’t forget to enclose as complete instructions about mixing
etc — as possible —

Hoping to hear from you on this subject

I remain sincerely at your service
