Bevis on DONALD FRIEND from BEVIS BAWA'S BRIEF. The Sometimes Irreverent Memoirs of a Gentleman in 20th Century Sri Lanka.



Detail of mural by Donald Friend at BRIEF.

"Donald yearned for a life of romance and adventure, he invariably had
a far-away look which came to life when animated by art and beauty. He
was very amusing and an excellent conversationalist. He had a way of
laughing heartily while relating a story, his whole body vibrating
with mirth. Donald lived like a prince himself and painted
obsessively."

Did you misspell Donald F's name in the heading?
