Dutch

NEW Prints now available in my Special Editions Shop, including my simple dutch bicycle illustration- check it out! I've always wanted to own one of these! NYC shop A Black Bike stocks the real thing and states "the steel swanlike frame will make you feel you are riding the most elegant bike in town and is a true eye catcher." I hope my illustration captures the essence of such a chic bike in my own little whimsical style!

Armstrong's Art Bikes

During the Tour Armstrong rode various Trek Madone's painted and stylized by famous artists, all of which will be auctioned off in NYC. The one ridden in the final stage into Paris was designed and produced by Damien Hirst with real butterflies lacquered into the paint job.

The Yoshitomo Nara Speed Concept Time trial bike that Armstrong rode during Stage 18 of the 2009 Tour de France. Written on the top tube is the saying never forget your beginners spirit! Good advice for any venue.

Great meshing of two of our passions- bicycling and art all brought together in the worlds greatest sporting event!
