Snapshot of Giverny Garden

Snapshot

There are so many things to consider while painting plein air.  Twice I have painted on site within Giverny .
Overwhelmed by all of the subject matter possibilities, I chose to paint small sections of the garden, the arbored doors of Monet's house and vignettes of the lily pond.  I have been told that it is impossible to paint an accurate sunrise or sunset, that no depiction can record the beauty presented by the ultimate creator, I felt the same way about this garden.
