Every since I was a girl, I have always loved Monet's work. I was in my 20's when I first got to lay eyes on some of his paintings. I was frozen in place, in disbelief, because they were so much more colorful than they were in the books. All those subtle seemingly greyed down paintings had peaches, pinks, and lavenders in them.
I painted his waterlillies for myself and made it my own. I made the colors a little more vivid because of the dark room it was going to be put in.
I really do want to try one of his more subtle landscapes. We'll see.
