Monet’s Garden

ABOUT THE COLLECTION
September 6 French Garden Collection

One of the elements that inspires me about the French design instinct is their ability to intellectualize a concept and make it into a design; The idea of Power is displayed in Hercules’ watch over the gardens at Vaux le Vicomte; Control in the pruning of their boxwoods and by diverting rivers and moving towns. While my outward persona is not usually characterized in this way; I contemplate every aspect of life. I over analyze and intellectualize the smallest elements of human interaction, reactions, and nature and color and even breezes. So much so that even I have to roll my eyes at myself; I am no philosopher. But I admire those points when made and I am constantly seeking the truth; however it is expressed.
Each day I wake I am more convinced that the world is bursting with meaning we have dulled our ears to; as though there is a screaming white noise of significance in the very air around us that we shut out so that we can get on with our small tasks.
It’s in this posture that I paint– quickly, so I might capture it.


I hope my artwork causes you to pause, contemplate, and inspires you to joy and hope.
I hope you know you are so deeply loved and appreciated.
