So I have decided to try doing a impressionist style painting I have always liked impressionist paintings so I have been looking on line at examples and reading on the different techniques for that style of painting.

Here are a few of my favorite so far:

Monet
Renoir
Monet
Monet

"When you go out to paint, try to forget what objects you have before you, a tree, a house, a field or whatever. Merely think here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow, and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact color and shape, until it gives you own naïve impression of the scene before you." -- Monet
