Day 21- A Picture of something that makes you happy

This is a picture of something that makes me happy. It's a painting by Claude Monet. I love this painting. Monet is my favorite painter and I think this painting is one of the most beautiful pictures that I have seen. Monet's style alway intrigued me. When you look a Monet painting up close it looks like a bunch of paint just smeared on a canvas. When you step back you can see how all those haphazard lines make a beautiful painting. This to me is a similar pattern of life. Sometimes we look at our lives up close and say what a mess this is, what a terrible situation this is. Sometimes we need to step back and see the whole picture. When we look at the whole picture
then we can see the beauty of what we have. The colors of Monet's painting are so vibrant. If you look at this
beautiful painting then you can see the number of colors that are used. The bright colors that make up the lilypads are so warm and inviting. Its almost like I'd love to step foot into this painting for a moment. At any rate whenever I need some cheering up I look at this picture and I feel a lot better!
