Artist

The image shows a young child sitting on a tricycle. The child is seated with hands on the handlebars, slightly turned to the side. The child has a neutral or slight smile, short hair covered by a hat, and wears a matching jacket, shorts, socks, and shoes. The ground is made of rectangular stone pavers, and in the background, there is a structure with steps and a brick wall. The setting appears to be outdoors in front of a building.
