Title: Show Me the Monet
Material: oil on canvas
Size: 24×24 (x 4 panels)
Year: 2004
I waited for the idea to consolidate, for the grouping and composition of themes to settle themselves in my brain. When I felt I had enough cards I determined to press into action, and did so. – Claude Monet
These four same-but-different panels are a remake of French Impressionist painter Claude Monet’s iconic “Haystack” series, simplified into three colors to suggest different seasons, times and moods, just like he did. The paint surface is very rough with brush strokes, for greater authenticity.
