Carl Larsson – [↑] The Model on the Table (1906); [+] Anna-Stina {Mrs. Alkman, née Rydell} (1905); [↓] Model Writing Postcards (1906)

One of the few things I know about writing is this: Spend it all, shoot
it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Don’t hoard what
seems good for a later place in the book, or for another book; give it,
give it all, give it now. The very impulse to save something good for a
better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will
arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from
beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself
what you have learned is not only shameful; it is destructive. Anything
you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your
safe and find ashes.
–Annie Dillard
