Exploring under an Umbrella

This one was inspired by a photo I took a few years ago of a couple exploring London in the pouring rain.

Anyone who’s travelled a lot has been there -– your hair looked a mess, your feet were wet, and you may even have been a bit crabby! OR maybe you embraced the situation, much like a child embraces playing in a puddle, to find joy in the moment.

So when painting this one, I made the figures look like a child’s painting in an effort to capture that childlike love of a rainy day.
