There is a wonderful statue of Monet, seated on a bench at his easel, at the far right of this garden. He is perfectly located to paint all the grandeur of this very special place, which is on the left. The curved bridge is the focal point of his gaze. Behind all of this is Margaret's Pond, with it's distant trees and subtle reflections. This landscape was perfect for the long format, using a new paper and my raven black ink. I really love the flow and spread of this ink. The more I use it, the more I like it. Good thing I have a large bottle of it! Painting number 1972 in 1972 days. This one is now showing at the Tomahawk Ridge Community Center in Overland Park, KS.
