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

@Gigs_98 - Yes I agree. This one is my favorite. Captures the TdF beautifully! Thanks for sharing all these.

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!

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):
