Marie Louise Kold has been asked for many interviews because of the Estelle portrait. To Värnamo Nyheter she tells:
- Daniel did not see the artwork until it was delivered, and then he seemed pleasantly surprised.
Marie Louise says she had to work a portion not to stare up at the fact that it was the Crown Princess couple who was her
customer.
- It did not feel like the right time to fail. But we agreed that it was done well than that it was done quickly.
The biggest challenge was to get the portrait to look like Princess Estelle.
- It is important to capture the essence of the person. In this case, it felt extra special because it involves both a portrait of a little girl who, like all children have great discovery lust - but also a portrait of a future queen.
Marie Louise Kold didn't want to reveal the price which the Crown Princess Couple had to pay for the artwork.
- But they got no special price, I priced for normal tariff.
According to her, the portrait will be in good company at the Haga Palace.
- I got a tour at the Palace and the Crown Princess couple has very exciting modern art at their home, says Marie Louise Kold.
