This is a vignette version of the full painting that was released in 2006. Thom incorporated some of his favorite city icons into this image: cable cars, Coit Tower, the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. If you look closely, you will see the artist himself, astride the vintage Harley Davidson.

""I Left My Heart in San Francisco ...', so says the classic ballad; yet what is it about the fabled city by the bay that so strongly tugs at the heart strings? I have yet to document a setting that is as quintessentially "San Francisco" as my newest work. We can almost hear the clanging of bells as a cable car makes its way ponderously up the street while colorful vehicles dodge to and fro on the congested pavement. At the far left the towers of a Cathedral lend a timeless presence while in the distance the Coit Tower and the picturesque monoliths of the bridge stand guard over the glistening bay. As I worked, I wanted so much to enter The Heart of San Francisco that I even posed myself astride my vintage Harley Davidson motorcycle making my way up the steep incline of the boulevard!"
