This is a portrait of my son. When he was little his head was full of trains, cars and all types of vehicles. I adored the wonder and joy he experienced watching and learning about them and the city. Tomas the Tank Engine was his favorite and his adventures kept us both entertained. I like to make portraits of people that show their loves, interests and give us an insight into their lives.
