Claude Monet, the famous painter, was born in 1840 in Paris, France. When Claude was sixty-eight, he began to go blind. This didn't stop him from painting. Because of his blindness, his paintings were very blurry. He continued to paint until he died in 1926 at the age of 86. Over Claude Monet's life, he accomplished many goals. Mostly, he painted what he felt. If you see one of his paintings, you will probably be thinking about Claude Monet's life and why he painted a particular object. This scene captured was the one thing I could possibly photograph as a replica of a Monet painting known as the, Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies. This is how I felt that day.
