Haystack

This is a picture of a haystack in our backyard. I was inspired by Monet to take this picture, he did many paintings of haystacks. He did a series of them at different times of the day to capture the light at various times during the day. When I looked up Monet for his haystacks I found this information and found out that the painting shown was inspired by a Japanese print of Mt. Fuji. I did not know that he used these prints for inspiration of his paintings. This is a picture of Mt. Fuji by Katsushika Hokusai. What a great print. I will have to look into this.
