A mini Monet, tucked inside a flower 🌼
Massachusetts artist @alleymcglynn reimagined Claude Monet’s “Woman with a Parasol” as a tiny paper world nestled inside a buttercup. Crafted from layers of intricately hand-cut and painted paper, the piece pays tribute to Monet’s love of nature while inviting people to slow down and discover something unexpected.
The miniature scene is “meant to be discovered only by those who take a closer look.”
“More than a century ago, Monet captured a fleeting, tender moment and shared it with us to be experienced across time,” McGlynn says. “Through this project, I had the privilege of stepping inside that moment and bringing it to life in a new way.” #OpenCall
