The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.
I work at my garden all the time and with love. What I need most are flowers, always. My heart is forever in Giverny.
These landscapes of water and reflection have become an obsession.
One day I am satisfied, the next day I find it all bad; still I hope that some day I will find some of them good.
I can only draw what I see.
It took me time to understand my water lilies. I had planted them for the pleasure of it; I grew them without ever thinking of painting them.
