Monet Monet

I was taking a class in painting and about the third assignment was to copy a painting by an artist of our choice. I love Monet and selected one of his to copy.
This is the purple waterlilly painting. Our next assignment was to paint one in the style of the same artist. This was Green Lake Morning. By this time, I was totally hooked on painting. Also, I was still glowing from my experience of an awesome sunset and another awesome sunrise at Green Lake in Seattle. There is something about a reflected sunset that really gets to me. So, I continued the theme in the next assignment, to create a painting in a very short time, a gestural
painting. The result was Green Lake Sunset which I painted in about 2 hours.
