Tour of Britain 2016: Stage 4 – Denbigh to Builth Wells

Cycling, art, Tour of Britain

Hello!  Stage 4 saw the Tour of Britain cross the border from England into Wales, following the longest route of this year’s race through the counties of Denbighshire, Flintshire and Powys and across the steep terrain of the Welsh mountains. It was a fine, sunny day and my eye was just caught by the intense shadows, leading me to experiment with extremes of line, shade and colour. A fantastic sprint to the finish saw Dylan Groenewegen and Dan McLay battle it out, with Groenewegen taking victory.  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.
