A bit of cycling art.
A watercolor I just finished. Kelly won the race & Lemond clinched the points for the season.

That's fantastic! So much hidden talent on this forum. Lemond & Kelly are two of my all-time favorites.

Looks pretty great from here! How big is it?
And how long did it take? I know I shouldn't ask that, but you know... inquiring minds... .

Thanks everyone!
It's not often I have time to paint cycling stuff. This was a two day effort but so much fun! I have so many classic cycling moments I want to put my spin on.
