Step back in time to the sun-drenched summer of 1867. A young Claude Monet, who would soon become the iconic father of Impressionism, has just set up his easel in the blooming gardens of his cousin’s estate in Sainte-Adresse, a breezy coastal town in Normandy, France. The result of that summer afternoon is the breathtaking masterpiece, Woman in the Garden, Sainte-Adresse.
- What You’ll Create:
Imagine crafting a stunning piece of early Impressionist art that captures a pivotal moment in art history. You will bring the beauty of an 1867 French estate to life, just as Monet did when he set up his easel outdoors in the coastal breeze of Sainte-Adresse. As you paint, you'll recreate his groundbreaking study of natural light, as shows in the brilliant, glowing whites of Jeanne-Marguerite's dress, or the blooming reds of the garden flowerbeds.
- How Paint by Numbers Works:
This is a "guided" art experience. The pre-printed canvas has numbered sections that correspond to the numbered paint pots. Simply dip your brush and fill in the shapes to reveal a professional-looking painting. It is intuitive, relaxing, and fail-proof.
- Why It’s Special:
This painting kit takes on an immersive journey from your cozy living room couch to a beautiful French garden. As you fill in the detailed spots of deep greens from Monet’s world, you're carving out a peaceful, creative retreat just for yourself through a beautiful piece of art history.
