The Artistry of Monet

I used to think wearing glasses was a curse. I would kneel by my bed and pray… thankful for all the gifts that were bestowed on me still wondering why my eyes were created this way. Until my parents took me to a museum. I still remember that fateful day where hanging on the museum walls I saw paintings by Monet. I remember thinking to myself.. How is this possible? How can this be? How can this man this Mr. Monet paint the world I see. Now I’m no longer sad when I remove my glasses and watch details of the world fade away for I know I share my vision with the artistry of Monet.
