About The Artwork
While visiting Monet's gardens in Giverny, France, I was excited to see the actual style and kind of rowboats that Monet kept in this exact same place. I had to paint them! I want you to enjoy the calm, soothing effect of the boats and lilies gently floating on this pond. I chose oil paint because I wanted a much slower drying time than acrylic. I painted the landscape first. Then I painted the basic color of the pond. While the pond was still wet, I scrapped the paint off using a soft rubber brush so the white of the canvas started to show through to give the reflection of the trees in the pond.
