Path under the Rose Trellises 1924

Claude Monet made this painting of a path under rose trellises with oil on canvas. Just imagine Monet in his garden, lost in this world of pinks, yellows, and greens, trying to capture the light filtering through the roses. I think that he made a painting that just feels like it came from a good place. The paint is applied so freely, like little bursts of color. See how these brushstrokes dance together, creating a sense of movement? It's almost like the canvas is alive with the buzzing of bees and the scent of roses. Looking at this painting reminds me that we artists are always in conversation with each other, learning from the past, pushing towards the future. I think it’s a reminder to embrace uncertainty, to let the painting guide you, and to find beauty in the process.
