Beijing 2022: Not Her Discipline


It has been fasinating watching Mikaela Shiffrin (USA) recover emotionally from the bitter disappointment of skiing out of her two best disciplines.  Since spending nearly a half hour sitting on the snow crying she has come back to finish 9th in the Super G and 13th in this Downhill.  Although we soon discovered that this was another training run for her final event the Women's Combined where she placed herself 5th after the downhill with the slalom (her best event) yet too come.  The best part is to see her finding joy and humor as she talks with the cameras constantly in her face.  I sure hope she gets a medal to complete her transformation in these Beijing Winter Olympics.

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.
