Gardener at Monet's Pond in the Fading Light
#Oil Painting
Monet spent his entire life living and painting along the banks of the Seine. This work depicts a gardener emerging in the evening glow, tending the water lily pond that leads to the Seine — the river Monet so dearly loved. The piece was exhibited at Viridia Artists Gallery in New York and received wide acclaim.
Guardians of Monet's Water Lilies
In 2023, I visited the pond in Giverny, France — created by Claude Monet and the setting for his late series of water lily paintings. I was deeply moved by the sight of a gardener still faithfully tending the beautiful garden, a century after Monet's passing. Since then, I have continued painting a series dedicated to gardeners.

Gardener at Monet's Pond in the Evening Glow
This garden was designed by Claude Monet himself, modeled after a Japanese garden, which he also tended as his own gardener. The painting portrays, in a more lyrical light, the beautiful figure of a gardener — a subject Monet himself never chose to paint.
Flowers in the Air
I paint these works with the wish to preserve forever the fleeting beauty of flowers. They will bring brightness to any room — why not consider one as a gift?
Symphony of Spring
