Artist Statement:
Ladybug and the Sun is a vibrant garden utopia of flowing florals and happy little critters. The
mural incorporates flowers from my own childhood memories growing up in Richmond including
buttercups, daisies, and dandelions. Other local botanicals include cranberries and cherry
blossoms which allude to the city’s largest agricultural crop and historical ties to one of
Richmond’s sister cities, Wakayama, Japan.
