Artist Series - Quilled Woman with a Parasol, Monet

"Woman with a Parasol", also known as "Madame Monet and Her Son", is one of Monet's most celebrated works of art, featuring Monet's wife, Camille, and their son, Jean, taking a stroll through tall grass on a beautiful sunny day. Ushering in the new age of Impressionism, "Woman with a Parasol" stands out due to its hastily sketched brushstrokes giving this painting a casual naturalness due to its completion in a single session while on an outing with his family. Monet's style masterfully depicts a sense of animation in his paintings, and "Woman with a Parasol" brilliantly demonstrates this technique as if you can feel the gentle breeze brushing against Camille's flowing dress and the tall grass.

Quilling is the art of rolling, coiling and shaping small strips of paper to create a cohesive three-dimensional design and has been practiced for centuries. Historians have been able to date the art form back to Ancient Egyptian times where crafters would use a bird’s feather (quill) as the tool to coil the paper upon.
