Claude Monet (1840-1926)
“Suddenly, it was as though a veil had been ripped from my eyes. I understood, I saw, what painting could be! From that moment on, my way was clear, my destiny decreed. I would be a painter no matter what. And I understood nature and I learned at the same time to love it.”

Claude Monet (1840-1926)
“When you go out to paint, try to forget what objects you have before you -- a tree, a house, a field, or whatever. Merely think: Here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow, and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact color and shape, until it gives your own naïve impression of the scene before you.”

Claude Monet (1840-1926)
“One day I believe I have a masterpiece, then it turns to nothing; I fight, I fight without advancing. I think I am searching for the impossible although I am full of courage.”

1999-2000
