In Awe I live on the edge of the canal impressed by Monet’s water flow upon it’s naked skin colors glisten a dark jewel mysteriously lovely in stained glass constant motion moving me in dancing reflection that holds me breathlessly in awe "no darkness has ever been deep enough to extinguish my personal knowledge of love" Anne Rice |

Monet was probably the impressionist par excellence. He is best known for his obsession in trying to capture the perfect impression of water lilies. Well done 1slick_lady in capturing the verbal impression of the visual impression. |

Makes me want to see the painting and the waterfall. I imagine they both have a lot to say if you listen. |

Take a bow, lady! This is gorgeous. I've no doubt it would have made Monet smile. |

Monet had a gift with color that is most vivid in your word art. Lovely write Helen. |

That 'stained glass constant motion' really holds me. I've read it through three times just for the vision. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
