books and art by elizabeth muray,
By "justineforbes2" (Saratoga, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Monet's Passion: Ideas, Inspiration and Insights from the Painter's Garden (Hardcover)
Elizabrth Murrray's books and art work are beautiful and inspiring. I am contributing these volumes to the public school of my grandchildren to accompany thier new school garden. She has a new book of art by children in Equador called Nantu Aujujae but I couldn't find it with your search, I wanted to include it with the other Elizabeth Murray books for the school. I hope you post it soon.

This review is from: Monet's Passion: Ideas, Inspiration and Insights from the Painter's Garden (Hardcover)
An easy read and visual feast, Monet's Passion exposes methods behind the color, texture, layout and scents of his magical gardens. It magnifies one's experience visiting the gardens or his works in galleries, and is a valuable companion to the painter's many works.

The book motivated me to visit Giverny, France.,

This review is from: Monet's Passion: Ideas, Inspiration and Insights from the Painter's Garden (Hardcover)
Beautiful photographs of the gardens at all seasons. Plant lists. The author tells about the history of Giverny and her experiences as a gardener there. It would have been helpful to know which US zones the plants would be hardy in.
