Monet (Abstract aqua oils)

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

“Abstract art, for me, is the representation
of that which has inspired or moved me.” ~Leila A. Fortier

    Impressive. Leila, you seem to have a passion for evoking response, and gently coersing the mind.
