Monet

Bronze sculpture of Monet sitting on bench painting

“Having graduated in 1981 from the University of Utah in painting & drawing, I’ve always had a great admiration and affinity to painters and I’ve always been moved by Monet’s works. Being a pretty serious gardener myself, it was only a matter of time before making the trek to Giverny, France – home of Monet’s water lily pond, home, garden and studio. It was glorious for Isaiah, Ty and I to walk the streets of this beautiful quaint little town and stroll around the very garden Monet created and painted from. After the visit and having done plein-air painting myself I knew I had to capture the ‘Father of Impressionism’ and include him in my Great Contributors series. I hope you’ll come and sit with and get to know this magnificent man as he creates his next masterpiece.”
