Olympics, Taking Them to the Top


I plan on painting the cycling events of the Olympics along with some of the other marquee events.  I will post them here, and make them available on my website per ususal.

The day started with the common early break away comprised of a United Nations of cyclist from around the world.  For most of these guys, it was the only way the world would know that they had been in the Olympics at all.  Better to go out and attack the day then hang in the middle of the peloton only to be kicked out the back when the aggression starts.  The early break of five included Polychronis Tzortzkis (Greece), Orlvis Avlar (Venezula), Nic Dlamini (South Africa), the other Sagan - Jurgai (Slovakia) and Michael Kukrle (Czech Repulic).  They build up a twenty minute lead on the peloton of starts, before the race behind got rather serious.

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at greigleach.com or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of the post to purchase the painting above.  Since it is an original work of art, it is a first come first served reality. The painting was created using Yarka St. Petersburg watercolors from www.Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 USD plus shipping, and yes international shipping is available.
