One look at Monet's garden and pond at Giverny in France and you'll also be wanting to paint the lilies and reflections. The garden, which is open from 1 April to 31 October only, is planted with a range of flowers, bulbs, and annuals, so each month is different.
Don't feel guilty about using photos for inspiration. Monet himself said: "Whether my cathedral views, my views of London and other canvases are painted from life or not is nobody's business and of no importance whatsoever."
