Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "Gail Halvorsen’s story inspired me to bring kindness and excitement to tough situations, even when it is difficult. In sharing this artwork, my hope is that we all take a step back to understand even when others may be perceived as “enemies” we can all use a little compassion and of course a lot of candy."
