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

Very nice! I know watercolor is not easy. At least, I have trouble with it.
That's a great job.

Thats awesome... wheels/circles are tough to get right, watercolor ones even more so. How big a piece is it? Just curious...

Nice job. You not only captured their likeness but their riding styles as well. It's just great!

Definitely art.

That's some great work. I'd hang a copy in the shop.

rootboy 01-14-16 07:06 PM

I love that background behind Kelly. Excellent.

I wouldn't mind seeing more of your art.

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.

Chrome Molly 01-16-16 07:35 AM

Rally nice stuff, glad to know that I can hang a print in the shop. The NR RD with Bullseye pulleys is another goodie. Same with the rest.
