“In painting this piece, I found my influence in both Sonia Hale, for her ability to capture the beauty and innocence of children, and Michael Peter Ancher, for telling captivating stories through his work.

As we walked through one of the city street marketplaces, Kate and I shared an umbrella to shield ourselves from the hot sun. This is a memory that I felt was worth capturing in paint. One, that to me, is filled with joy!”
