170/365: "I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers." ~ Claude Monet
I have two areas in our front yard where I've planted wildflower seeds, but since we live in a rural area, the animals feast on my flowers and will eat the plant down to the ground, usually just when the flowers are ready for pictures. We put a mesh fence around my metal tub, but the larger area was not protected. The morning I got up and found the gorgeous plant that was about to erupt into bloom had been completely eaten, we went out and got a motion-detecting spayer. It's WORKING!! These two blossoms are a few that are still alive after several days and I'm elated!!!
I chose this quote because it not only fits, but Steve and I are currently watching a very interesting, well-done BBC mini-series called, "The Impressionists", which is reconstructs the origins of the Impressionist art movement and features Claude Monet (among others). It's very good! :)
Claude Monet (14 November 1840 – 5 December 1926) was a founder of French impressionist painting, and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to plein-air landscape painting. The term Impressionism is derived from the title of his painting Impression, Sunrise (Impression, soleil levant)Wikipedia: Claude Monet
