Reading Between the Strokes

Monet’s quick strokes of intense color
bring impressions of 3-D to his
two-dimensional oil paintings, even without
fiiltered glasses. It’s as if stems
catch a breeze…perhaps a wind,
a dog chase, or even a nibbling bunny.
Or as if water gently flows ’round corners
with reflected shadows dancing along.

Reading between the strokes,
I continue to be moved by Monet.

Smooth flowing strokes swirl
across watercolor paper,
revealing life’s complexion
with layers of softened hues.

Painting by Claude Monet (14 November 1840 – 5 December 1926), a founder of French impressionist painting
