In two letters written on Eagle's Nest headed paper, Heron wrote to Olga Davenport, the previous owner of Violet Brown Ochre Lemon & Black:

Thursday
'Ah yes - the present! It is not yet in existence! But it will be. In any case I think it would have been wrong to throw it at you through the Xmas post, wouldn't it? You mightn't have liked it enough! If I give it to you properly (or give you a choice) I'll be able to note this. See?'

Sunday 12th
'By the way - what was arranged about a frame for my painting (yours, I mean!)? Shall I look into it with (and for) you when I come up? Framing v. important ... Until soon ... much love P'.
