As Justine Braisaz-Bouchet (France) skiied her way into the final stretch of the Mass Start Biathlon the announcer provided me with the title for the painting. Since I watch as close to live and paint the image that appeals and tells a good story, I didn't know that moments after this one she was handed a French flag to carry across the finish line. Her final five shots were all hits allowing her to jump ahead of the pair of leading Norwegians who had to ski penalty loops for missed shots to claim the Gold medal in the final Biathlon event in Beijing 2022.
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 from www.Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 USD plus shipping, and yes international shipping is available.
