Claude Monet
Image
When I work I forget all the rest.
Claude Monet
Image
What could be said about me...a man to whom only his painting matters? And of course his garden and his flowers as well.
Claude Monet
Image
What is it that's taken hold of me, for me to carry on like this in relentless pursuit of something beyond my powers?
Claude Monet
Image
One day Boudin said to me, 'Learn to draw well and appreciate the sea, the light, the blue sky.' I took his advice.
Claude Monet
Image
I waited for the idea to consolidate, for the grouping and composition of themes to settle themselves in my brain.
Claude Monet
Image
I'm continuing to work hard, not without periods of discouragement, but my strength comes back again.
Claude Monet
Image
The point is to know how to use the colours, the choice of which is, when all's said and done, a matter of habit.
Claude Monet
Image
I can only draw what I see.
