I think that this picture captures the excitement that Denver is feeling. All of the people in her community don't get to do fun things very often and in this picture you can see everyone come together as a community to have a good time. There's lots of chaos, and food and friends, just like I picture the carnival from the book to be like. The painting has that same childlike, we don't get to do this very often, excitement.
