Monet is one of my absolute favorite artists, so the cover grabbed me as I was browsing. I love historicals, particularly about artists. This was a great read and now I have to go find Marrying Mozart, since he's my favorite composer. As I also come from a family of artists and dabble in it myself along with my writing, I can say everything felt very real. I could nearly smell the paint. My only question was that it shows him transporting his newly finished paintings, other than back home from where he was working. Oil takes some time to dry, about two days I think, so I had to wonder if he had a certain kind of case to carry them in to protect them or if he used something to help the paint dry more quickly. Other favorites: Michelangelo, Van Gogh, Degas, Cassatt I’ve just finished reading Claude & Camille. Monet is one of my absolute favorite artists, so the cover grabbed me as I was browsing.

I really enjoyed the interview, too; your blog entries are consistently entertaining and informative, Kris! :) One of my favorite artists is Michael Sowa. His subject matter (animals, mostly, often imitating humans) is so quirky, but it's home-y and reminds me of my childhood. I love to read and write children's literature, as well, so his paintings seem to fit with that genre really well. This book sounds amazing!
