“Monet’s Haystack”

Posted in Art Work Posts - Written by Sandra Longmore on October 20, 2010

Friday’s daily painting was inspired by Monets Haystack. I love his quote of “I want to paint like a bird sings”. I first heard this quote on Susan Sarback’s DVD. Susan demonstrates painting with light and color rather than observing images as outlined and then filled.

Claude Monet Haystacks paintings consists of 25 paintings and the series is known for its thematic use of repetition to show differences in perception of light across various times of day, seasons, and types of weather. The subjects were painted in fields near Monet’s home in Giverny, France. I did mine in Vancouver, Washington dreaming of painting like a bird sings thanks to this inspirational artist. I found the exercise in the “Impressionism for Kids” Book.
