Claude Monet lived for forty-three years, from 1883 to 1926, in his house in Giverny, France. With a passion for gardening as well as for color, he conceived both his flower garden and water garden as true works of art. Walking through his house and gardens, visitors can still feel the atmosphere which reigned at the home of the Master of Impressionism and marvel at the floral compositions and nymphĂŠas, his greatest sources of inspiration.

After 28 years, in the summer of 2018 Jill Hackney was able to return to Giverny, France to paint in the gardens of artist Claude Monet. Through the Fondation Claude Monet, Jill was able to paint in solitude for hours in the blissful space, feeling the resonance of the spirit of Monet. This opportunity allowed the artist to explore a new pathway with her signature mark-making.

"For this new series, I let the surface of the water, the texture of the waterlilies and the movement of light be my guide. My painting technique has evolved to capture these new landscapes but the natural light, as always, tells the story." -Jill Hackney
