Tour '22, Stage 21: Art of Cycling

My twitter handle is "artofcycling" so it just seemed too perfect to entitle this image "Art of Cycling."  The new entry onto the Champs Elysees for the Tour is to ride through the plaza of the Louvre, around the Pei pyramid and then back out onto the streets of Paris.  If you don't know the Louvre holds one of the most amazing collections of art, sculpture, and architectural history.  While you can find the 'Mona Lisa' there, there is so many other famous works.  This route wasn't used by the women this morning, mainly because they were not on a promenade, but were racing from the flag being pulled in as they rode along the Siene.  The men will be ready to race in earnest in just a few more minutes.

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 and Steve Quiller brushes from www.Richesonart.com. The work sells for $90 USD including shipping, and yes, international shipping is available. 

If you can't afford to purchase a piece you could always help keep me going by buying me a cup of coffee at buymeacoffee.com/greigsartc.  And check out my vlogs at my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLGX-TnjXDSkkOidUE6pN1g
