Four- Wing Saltbrush
I was walking around a dry area with salty soil when I saw a beautiful flower. The flower was around 6 feet tall. It had rounded leaves and was shrub like. I took a look around at the other flowers and they seemed to be only 2-3 feet tall. The flower has 4 leaves that project out from the center at different angles. The flowers seemed to vary in many different colors. From grayish white to a reddish green. The flower had many branched. The leaves didn't seem poisonous, so I took a risk and tasted one. The leaf had a salty taste to it.

    Instead of painting each flower within the grass with intricate detail, Monet just gives us the gesture of flowers by painting small brush strokes in a variety of colors. The clouds are well done and demonstrate impressionism at its finest, especially on the left side. On the left side of this painting, the obvious rough brush strokes that form the clouds almost remind me of ripples in water. If you close your eyes right now, try to picture the reflection of the sky mapped out onto water. Now imagine the distortion you’d see if someone threw a rock into the water.…
