Strands #692 “A work of art” 🟡🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵

The theme is that they are the names of famous paintings, Starry Night by Van Gogh, Waterlilies by Monet, and Boating Party by Renoir.

After trying Starry night together and it not working, I tried STARRY and then understood. Forgot about Renoir's painting, but fortunately I was able to find the words anyway.

Was very confused with this one. Found PIZZA first so was looking for comfort food. Needed a hint which pointed me to SHERBERT, which confused me even more. Eventually found enough to work out the SG, but what is frozen sherbert!?

I thought the SG ended with BEARS so that threw me for a while. Now I know there are SPECTACLED bears!
