Paris Olympics 2024, Men's Gymnastics Individual All Around: Extreme Effort


There are many stories at the Olympics of athletes going through all sorts of struggles to get to the Olympics.  One that speaks to me is what those from the Ukraine have had to endure just to be able to be present let alone competitive.  But that is exactly Oleg Verniaiev (Ukraine).  He has returned from war in his country, a ban from competitive sports, and is now in his third Olympics having missed the Tokyo Games because of the suspension.  But here he is leading after each rotation and finishing eighth on the day.

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 work sells for $95 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
