Impressionism has captured people’s imagination since its first exhibition in Paris in 1874, and artists have long sought to understand how the Impressionists created their paintings and how their techniques might be replicated. So whether you’re an artist who wishes to learn more about painting or an art-lover who would like to get a deeper insight into Impressionism, this webinar on Claude Monet provides a wonderful opportunity to learn, explore and enjoy some of his most celebrated paintings!
Claude MONET (1840-1926) and Impressionism are almost synonymous. It was his painting of 1872, Impression, Sunrise, that inspired the art movement’s name after all. Ironically, however, this painting is untypical of Monet’s work and of the Impressionist movement in general. In this webinar series on the Impressionists we will encounter many contradictions and dispel many myths and misconceptions.
The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.
Throughout his life, Monet was fascinated by light effects and the challenge of capturing their appearance in paint. He had a passion for painting water amongst other subjects. Its colours, nuances and reflections allowed him to explore different techniques and effects. In this webinar, we will be looking in detail at his Water Lilies cycle as well as other famous works.

This 3-hour live webinar is divided into three parts:
- Talk . . . 45 minutes
- Painting Demonstration . . . 120 minutes
- Q & A (Questions & Answers) . . . 15 minutes
Introductory Talk (45 minutes)
The webinar begins with an overview of Monet’ life and career, covering topics such as his background, training and influences, his style and technique and how these evolved during his long career, his use of colour, his signature application of paint, and his preoccupation with water and nature.
Starting in the late 1890s, Monet spent the last three decades of his life working on the Water Lilies Cycle, inspired by the water garden that he created at his Giverny estate in Normandy.
Painting Demonstration (120 minutes)
The 2-hour painting demonstration will cover two of Monet’s works from the early and late 1890s. This demonstration will also show you how Monet used broken colour in combination with Michel Chevreul’s theory of colour and complementary colour schemes.
You will also learn about a range of other techniques that Monet employed in his oil paintings such as slabs of colour, two-dimensional brushwork, palette knife painting, impasto and the influence of Japanese art.
The technical information, such as pigment analysis and materials, in this demonstration painting have been have been analysed by the research departments at major art museums, and the reproduction in this demonstration is based on their findings.
Live Q&A (15 minutes)
You will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the painting demonstration and time will be allowed at the end of the webinar for a more detailed discussion and question and answer session. You can follow up with me after the webinar if you have any further questions or if you would like to enquire about more in-depth courses and workshops.

As someone who has never painted, I’m finding this course excellent. The class is in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and the instruction is second to none. Highly recommended.

I really learned a lot and definitely want to do more of your classes. It was very well planned, with just the right balance of theory and practice, and the notes to take away will be very useful.
