Monet's Water Lillies are an important contextual reference for this project. I feel as though the work draws upon the ideas of memories in a literal sense. The infamous nature of Monet's paintings becomes a memory in it self. I remember looking at these paintings when I was in junior school.
The use of light and tone is something that I can think about when painting myself. I often over look classic art when contextualising my work, yet here this can help me to develop my practice and ideas.
