MONET explosion!

We decided on a more aggressive approach to the Monet studies...... now we are working on a large scale painting to be mounted on the ceiling in the main Academy lobby. The piece is influenced by Monet's lilies series- mainly by his use of color, values and paint application techniques.

Today we painted (or rolled on) the first layer of color. Wednesday we will begin work with large brushes, and then build layers and detail.
