Quotables: Art

Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand, as if it were necessary to understand, when it is simply necessary to love.
-- Claude Monet

Whenever I think of Monet, I think of my Mom.  In 2013 my sister Rachel and I took my mom to Europe.  One of the top items on her list was to see Monet's garden at Giverny, outside of Paris.  We spent a lovely morning amid his flowers, and Mom said the whole trip was worth it just for that experience.  Love you, Mom!  (Rachel, you're pretty awesome, too!)
