Sunday morning art

Water Lily Pond, Harmony in Green (1899) - Claude Monet

This was Monet's own personal Japanese styled water pond. One can understand why Monet used it as the primary subject of his art for the last 26 years of his life.1

I know how he must have felt. I am lucky to live in my own little Eden too, and if I were a painter, it would probably be the source for much inspiration.

I have linked your site to mine, but I wasn't sure whether I should call it The Daily Doubter, which I did, or Hume's Ghost, which I like better.

I don't mind either way.
