Olympics 2018: Historic Gold

Ester Ledecka (Czech Republic) did something that has never been done in the Olympics before.  She won a Gold Medal earlier in the Women's Super G (a skiing event) and today took Gold in the Women's Parallel Giant Slalom in snowboarding.  No Olympic athlete has won Gold medals in two different sports in a single Olympic games until Ledecka did it today.

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available by emailing me at greigsart@gmail.com.  Since it is an original it is first come first served.  It is $75 plus shipping.  The painting was created using Yarka St Petersburg watercolors from Richesonart.com.  And yes, international shipping is available.

Rio Olympics: Through the Woods

The Women's Mountain Bike race was contested on dusty roads yesterday, but the rain overnight left the men racing on slippery muddy roads.  Literally slipping off the front was the Swiss rider, Nino Schurter with the Czech, Jaroslav Kulhavy chasing him through the rock strewn woods, splattering mud on themselves as they go.  The duo had contested for the Gold Medal in London four years ago, and it looks like they would repeat the effort in Rio.

This is a small watercolors and ink painting measuring just 4"x6" and was created using Yarka St. Petersburg watercolors and Steve Quiller brushes from www.richesonart.com.  This painting and all of my Olympics artwork will be available through my artist website at www.greigleach.com.  To purchase this particular painting just follow the direct link at the end of this post.  Remember this is an original work of art, so once it has been sold, it is gone.  Don't delay buy it now!
