Artist about this artwork
This painting encapsulates a quintessential childhood moment, a time when the hunger for knowledge and the joy of exploration remain untethered by the constraints of adult conventions.
In the realm of childhood, if something brings genuine delight, it's entirely permissible to indulge in it to the fullest. You can drink it heartily, scoop it up by the handful, or stash it away in every available pocket, carrying a piece of that joy with you. Naturally, this behavior tends to vex parents, for such exuberance is considered less acceptable in the realm of grown-ups. It's a pity, really.
