It was a bit odd to see Didi Senft (aka The Devil) out alone on the side of the road. NBC/Universal did a story that feature Didi long before the peloton got to him. He was set up to cheer the Tour at roughly 42 kilometers to go. I am glad I painted this one, since the race coverage didn't pick up this icon of the Tour on the side of the road. Apparently, he has been going to the race as the Devil for 33 years now. Now that is some serious devotion to the Grand Boucle.
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 $99 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
