This is a painting of my niece, Azalea. I decided to simplify the background that I initially planned for a more calming effect.

I love the serenity that your paintings radiate. In this one, especially. It’s such a trademark of your work – a feeling of deep calm and a smoothness to how you show things. Your most beautiful picture to date, this one!

She looks a lot like you in this painting. Like a little Sheila.

That’s cute. She’s probably daydreaming about traveling.
