Anniversary Games 2013: London

Hello! This weekend saw the return of the much-missed Olympic spirit to London in the form of the Anniversary Games. A great idea and the beautiful Queen Elizabeth Stadium was packed to see the stars from London 2012. They did not disappoint. A wonderful warm-up for the upcoming World Championships. Day 1 saw a great high jump contest and the magnificent Usain Bolt, while Day 2 saw a great women’s 100m, long jump and the return of Super Saturday stars, Jessica Ennis-Hill and the Mobot himself, Mo Farrah. Here are my drawings:

I’m a mixed media visual artist working in Leicestershire in the UK. I trained in Fine Art using different media including oils and acrylics, but my recent work reflects my love of drawn media, especially pen, ink, watercolour and pastels. My theme is movement – My subjects are varied from landscape, animals, musicians, dancers and sport, especially cycling. The unifying feature of all these subjects is that they are constantly changing – there is movement and energy everywhere.

    Thank you Cindy – much appreciated. The Olympics were so special last year and it was great to have a reminder of just how great it was. 🙂
