Paris Olympics 2024, Women's Hammer Throw: A Silver Medal Throw!


I got a bit overwhelmed with painting the Olympics, so after the Men's and Women's road races, I've decided to paint from various high lights in hopes of not burning myself out.  That being said, it is back into the Track & Field for the newly minted American Annette Nneka Echikumwoke (USA) and her medal winning hammer throw.  She has recently gained US citizenship coming from Ethiopia.  Her first of three throws was enough to put her in medal contention, but she was out thrown in the end by her Canadian competitor.  Still, an Olympic Silver Medal is quite the achievement.  Welcome to the USA, Annette.

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.
