Warm Feelings

Shion Yanagi

Tokyo, Japan　6 years old

My peace is a gentle and warm feeling along with cake. I drew colors like a warm sun, cream and strawberries around the cake, and a candle in the center.

Judge's Comment

The warm colors and gentle lines bring peace and happiness to the heart. We were touched by the sincerity in both the emotions and expression, and that’s why we chose this piece. May Shion’s gentle and warm spirit reach everyone!
