Water Lily Pond at the house of Claude Monet #4

Did you know that Claude Monet created his water lily ponds to paint? And here all these years later, I am also painting his water lily pond. My daughter, Tracy, & I went to Giverny, France to visit Claude Monet's house, gardens and water lily ponds. From the many photos I took, I painted this painting.

I was just admiring your painting titled Monet's Pond. The tonal quality in this work is remarkable, so many variations of green. I also like the composition of Blue Ridge, it is a great painting. Bridget
