For once I chose this image to paint because one of the fans at the side of the road. I was struck by the most enthusiastic baker, still clad in his apron, getting pictures of the break away with his cell phone. I admit to trying to find an appropriate pun to go with a baker and the break climbing the mountain. I may not have succeed. The original group of seven was starting to thin out on the final climb of the day. At 15 kilometers left to the summit and the end of the stage, it qA mrrwo Montaguti (Ag2r La Mondiale) followed by Jan Polanc (UAE Team Emirates) and Tosh Van Der Sande (Lotto Fix-All). Each had tried to leave the others, but couldn't succeed. Meanwhile, the peloton had closed to within a minute and a half.
This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available though my website at
www.greigleach.com, or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of this post. Since it is an original it is first come first served. The painting was created using Yarka St Petersburg watercolors from
Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 plus shipping. And yes, international shipping is available.
