Rob,
I just discovered your blogs and I love your paintings! I've looked at all of them. I especially like your Tour de France paintings, and your landscapes, and, well I guess I like all of them... I'll add you to my blog list.
How wonderful! There's a touch of your racing car paintings in this one of the bike race. Love it!
hi ann,i'll do the same,thank you so much for your kind comments.
love your chicken painting!
thanks susan,yes they are a bit of a cross between the landsapes and cars.
thanks!
Very cool
thanks cara
3 more days till the finish!
this race is a great way to discover french landscapes !
Great painting!
yes indeed helene,the french landscpe is one of the main attractions of the tour...
and the weather!
What a tour! I just didn't think Sastre could pull it off at the TT. Poor Cadel. Must be frustrating.
Cooper
ps What happened to Stig on TG?
cadel got what he deserved,second place for a wheel sucker,he should get himself a tandem...
so were you able to follow the tour ok in the us?
thanks cooper
Absolutely love the movement in your paintings. Wonderful work!
What a wonderful idea Rob, and a great way of finding inspiration for a series of paintings.
As usual you've made a good job of conveying the movement and light.

Rob--a few of us have been out of touch lately. Your Tour piece is a lot different from your usual, but I love the design and the feeling of motion it has. Look forward to more.

cheers Jack!
