Photo by Robert Whitaker: “It was John I felt quite at home with, and we got to be very friendly. We’d talk about Dalí, Magritte or other painters. We used to paint together, disscussing odd things – the solidity of objects here and in space. I think that one had a bit to do with LSD...I found John humorous, warm and very witty. His art – the drawings and poetry – is humorous and beyond belief. Very Spike Milligan, but also beautiful.”
