Thank you. Yes, there's definitely a current of sadness in his eyes. The idea was to convey the idea of what childhood ought to be, but isn't anymore. The eyes are the mirrors to the soul is what I believe, no matter how hard you try to hide your emotions, I believe the eyes always tell the truth. I have made portraits of children laughing in the rain, this struck a different chord when I saw the reference, which made me determined to capture it.

Yeah, it sad that childhood isn't that anymore because that's where the real fun lies! Yeah, I do believe that the eyes are the mirror to one's soul too, they do say a lot about a person.
This is much more different than another drawing you will see of kids but it holds a great message.
