Painting Le Tour

[Jspear]

Re: Re:

yes ofcourse it looks amazing
the hairpins look like drawn by a kis
hope i can do it justice

Can't wait to see.

Wanted to ask you if you could post some high resolution links of your works, so we could do quality prints. I'm sure it would be appreciated by lots of members.

All for a price.

You haven't let us down, mate.
Have you considered doing Lacetes in surrealistic manner? Inspiring shape.

Agree with everything there

Nice paintings!

My family is in the art gallery business, and while I doubt they'd do sport paintings, I really think you deserve to have your stuff in a proper gallery. Say Amsterdam, Brussel or Paris...?

Good work, and though you sense the strokes of a fan, as well as some sort of recreating an ideal image of a sport, I think it is very good. Chapeau!

 

[Lequack]

I've noticed that you're also painting this year, I very much like the paintings.

Maybe you can post your favorites so far on this year's tour. I like Cummings winning yesterday:

 

[Sciocco]

I want the Sagan one!

 

[Lequack]

Love to see what today's painting will be. Maybe Froome ins his weird aero style :razz:

 

[BigMac]

Yeah, got the e-mail from Rob saying he'd be painting this year as well. Maybe he can come here and post the paintings himself.

Yeah that would be great. Maybe you can send him an e-mail? Meanwhile here's yesterday's Froome decimating his rivals (says on the site it was already sold, no wonder):
