About the sitter
The portrait is of the artist’s son Omar Sarac who is a resident of Brisbane and is one in a series of paintings of him. The painting captures a moment of everyday happiness set in the carefree and laid back culture of Brisbane. The artist has always been intrigued by the uniqueness of light and colour in Brisbane which are often intense and vibrant.
