Tour de France 2021: Stage 11 – The weirdness that is Mont Ventoux
Tour de France 2021 – Stage 11, The weirdness that is Mont Ventoux,
Mont Ventoux always reminds me of the moon, with its white, grey stoney surface – beautiful shades of Naples yellow and grey – and what seems to be little in the way of living things… It’s a strange and evocative scene – something of science fiction…
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.
