I have taken on an ambitious project that combines his passion for cycling and art by painting each stage of the 2024 Tour de France. I capture the essence and energy of the race, creating a unique visual diary of this iconic event.
A long-time cycling enthusiast and avid follower of the Tour, embarked on this project with the aim of translating the excitement, struggles, and triumphs of the riders into compelling artwork. Each stage of the race presents a new challenge and opportunity for me to depict the varied landscapes, the intensity of the competition, and the emotional highs and lows experienced by the cyclists.
There's a special magic in the Tour de France .The race is not just about who crosses the finish line first; it's about the journey, the camaraderie, and the breathtaking scenery. I want my paintings to reflect the heart and soul of the race.
The project has garnered significant attention from both the art and cycling communities. Fans and collectors eagerly await the release of each new painting with paintings selling around the world
One of the standout pieces so far is my depiction of the historic stage 5 where Mark cavendish won his 35 Stage win making him the most successful cycling in the history of the tour... this pen and ink drawing capture the moment in the race and are available as prints to0!
My unique approach has also resonated with the cyclists themselves. Several riders have expressed their admiration for my work, with some even requesting personal pieces to commemorate their participation in the Tour. "It's incredible to see the race through Garth's eyes," said one cycling fan "He captures the spirit of what we do in a way that words can't."
