| Every painting is a learning experience for me. Much of the time I find the work does not come easily. There are, however, happy exceptions when th epainting seems to paint itself. Working in my garden nourishes my soul, giving me inspiration to put what I feel on the canvas. My hero is Claude Monet. I found his garden at Giverny breathtaking - as if his paintings came alive. |
