Following the footstep of the old masters, I was inspired by the works of Claude Monet. I used “woman with a parasol” and “the water lily pond” to make this piece. By taking the main elements from the two works and created my own version of it.

The main vocal point of this painting is the girl, which is me. She is holding her doll with an umbrella which symbolizes the pure and I am, with the white dress helping to convey those feeling aswell. The reason I am sitting in the pond is because, I like to take a dip in the water. The background is laid with various green representing Monet’s water lily pond, the green represents life and like us we strives to be better at ourselves without forgetting our past.
