Tour de France 2020: Stage 15 – a consoling gesture
This image from Stage 15, shows the moment when Nairo Quintana of Arkéa-Samsi, gave his friend Egan Bernal, the current champion, a consoling tap on the back as he rode alongside him and his team mates from Ineos Grenadiers. Bernal was struggling, which was painful to see. The Grand Colombier proved to be too much for both of them, as Quintana too, fell out of the overall standings later on. A tough day.
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.
