I can definitely see what you are saying about Monet's style, it certainly has that influence, but more than that it has YOUR style stamped on it. I like the subject matter, which evokes a nice mood. A nice bright work to make you feel contemplative, but happy too.

Another great piece from you. I love the colours on this one. Yes it reminds me of the great Claude Monet ( I saw his works at the musee D'Orsay in Paris). You have a great technique managing shadows.
Great work and creativity.

The impressionist feeling to the flowers and foliage is in the style of Monet. The delightful sunlit bench invites one to come and sit. Good use of shadows. You have used a nice color palette. Well done

Comment from Three Dogs
This does have an impressionistic look and feel, the unreal bright colors, the shading of the bench, all very nice and jump off the page. Impressionistic, sureal , they are wonderful medians for expression as they allow the artist to think out of the box and you have done so here. Nicely done.

I like this style - captures the naturalness of the real garden by being not perfectly symetrical and neat and tidy. The bold dabs of color convey the essence of the flowers without having to be detailed. . Very good - thanks for sharing it

I can say that I like the colors of the flowers here.
To compare a digital work with that of a master is unimaginable. While this may work as what it is, a digital, it in no way brings the feeling of Monet.
Nice idea, but go for oils next time. I don't mean to be hurtful but there has to be some validity to what you say.
Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your review, but I respectfully disagree with your opinion about Monet. A lot of people who are frequent art museum visitors that I know, and art museum patrons have told me that my digital artwork here reminds them of Monet, and I agree also. No offense, and no hard feelings- but let's amicably agree to disagree.
Please Take Care,
