According to professor Mel Leipzig, art history, in the video, impressionism is the color construct the type of painting. And he considers Monet an impressionist leader because Monet always painted from life and he started with reality. As well as painting what he loved. The professor also said the color became more imprtant than the form. One of the critics at the show said this is not a painting, this is an impression. Monet painted the same scene from 8 in the morning until 10 clock and another one from 10 to 12. Throughout his life Monet stated that he was a student of Boudin. Even when he was very old man.
I am not a critic to criticise Monet's paintings, but I want to say Monet was a great painter because he did not draw for drawing. He was drawing particular things in his paintings, like a light and the colors were translated at specific different times. I think he was creative, because he painted the real life; he also was using his feeling to exhibit his paintings to the people in this magnificence.
