Giverny

Beautiful flowers, friends and landscapes. Brought to you by Monet and Company. Finally restored to their former beauty, Monet's gardens were in full bloom last weekend. Amazing because it was a chilly October morning, None the less, incredibly sunny and dewy. From what I was told, Monet would envision particular scenes, and then landscape his gardens as he desired to paint them. You can still see a strong resemblance. Take a look and keep in mind some of your favorite Monets. Now trying seeing the gardens through his eyes, and imagine translating and express them into a painting. Pretty cool right?
