Embracing 2024: A Year of Artistic Adventures?
Hello and Happy New Year! I hope it’s not too late to extend my warmest wishes to you. Reflecting on my artistic plans for the upcoming months, I reckon 2024 will be busy. I like this quiet time just after Christmas to think and dream a little, before the energy of Spring catches me. So here goes, ‘Embracing 2024: A Year of Artistic Adventures…’ Some of the ideas and projects in mind for 2024,…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 21 - A Capital Race!
Wow! What a climax to these incredible three weeks. A capital race in Paris.. Thank you for following along!
STAGE 21: SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES TO PARIS CHAMPS-ÉLYSÉES
Last time to Paris as the Olympics will be on this time next year. It feels right that this astonishing Tour should finish in the capital. It’s been a capital race! Vingegaard is the overall winner., with Pogacar in second place, the Yates twins third and fourth. A great achievement from a British perspective. Victor Campanaerts won…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 20: Unassailable in Yellow
Stage 20! The last mountain stage of this year, but also of the hero rider, Thibaut Pinot, what a day!
STAGE 20: Belfort TO Le Markstein Fellering
Jonas Vingegaard looks unassailable in Yellow as the stage begins but we never know. It should be a dramatic day’s racing and climbing. Team UAE set their stall out to go for the stage win today. It is the only way for them to stand a chance against Jonas Vingegaard and his team Jumbo Visma.
Setting the scene
Short stage but hard climbs. A personal…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 19 - Fast and furious again
Nearly there! Stage 19 with immaculate, fast and furious photo finish with an emotional winner
STAGE 19: MOIRANS-EN-MONTAGNE TO POLIGNY
Stage 19 Stage 19 was another extraordinary race. From the first kilometre to the last, this was fast and furious again. An absolutely crazy stage with an emotional photo finish. Stage 19 was a volatile race. From the first kilometre to the last, this was fast and furious again. An absolutely crazy stage with an emotional photo finish. It was the last…

Women's World Cup 2023: Go Lionesses!
Go Lionesses! 'Nuff said, good luck!
Go Lionesses! A simple message of good luck and support to England’s Women. Wishing everyone a great tournament.
The Lioness Pride
The Lionesses have been a joy and inspiration to female footballers and fans in the past few years. Their following growing in great numbers. I think this not only reflects the way the women play but also the atmosphere and spirit of the matches.

Tour de France 2023: Stage 18 - A joyful stage
Stage 18 was an absolute joy. A real surprise breakaway.
STAGE 18: MOÛTIERS TO BOURG-EN-BRESSE
Stage 18 should be a contest between the breakaway and the sprinters teams but with so many sprinters now out of the race, it becomes more a question of ‘who wants to work Alpecin–Deceuninck to set up a bunch sprint?’ The most likely outcome being Jasper Philpsen’s fifth stage win.
Yellow musketeers
Instead, it turned out very differently, a tale of four…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 17 - Is it all over?
Just in time... The Queen stage
STAGE 17: SAINT-GERVAIS MONT-BLANC TO COURCHEVEL
Today is the Queen stage on this year’s Tour de France. This is the stage not only with the hardest climbs and several of them at that, but critically, is the stage where the whole general classification could be won or lost. Is it all over?
Alps
Setting the scene
A dry and sunny day, there were a series of breaks along the way. Special mention…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 16 - All about a minute
What a dramatic time trial? Simply outstanding!
STAGE 16: PASSY TO COMBLOUX
A climber’s time trial and the only one of this year’s Tour. Whereas yesterday’s stage was all about the seconds, today’s eventual result was all about a minute – just a little more which separated the two main protagonists in this year’s high drama.
Setting the scene
Time trials are interesting to watch and not the easiest to draw. A single cyclist out on the road…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 15 - All about the seconds
Stage 15 the second day in the Alps with seconds to fight for on the mountain. All about the seconds today!
STAGE 15: LES GETS LES PORTES DU SOLEIL TO SAINT-GERVAIS MONT-BLANC
Today is the second day in the Alps. Another tough day in prospect and after the frankly bewildering stage yesterday, one wonders what could happen next? After the drama, not much has changed in the General Classification. Jonas is still in Yellow having taken a second back from Pogacar. Tadej is still hot on Jonas’ wheels with…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 14 - Crashes and camera bikes
Here is Stage 14 - A difficult stage to interpret... but incredible day's racing
STAGE 14: ANNEMASSE TO MORZINE LES PORTES DU SOLEI
Today’s stage is the first of two days in the Alps. The routes are hard with climbing from start to finish. A chance for the Yellow Jersey combatants to show their skills and possibly for the precious jersey to change saddles.
There has been discussion amongst riders and experts about the fast descent into Morzine. It could be one for Tom…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 13 – On the Grand Colombier
Fire on the mountain, you could say! Stage 13 is the first of three gruelling climbs. The first is the Grand Colombier...
STAGE 13: CHÂTILLON-SUR-CHALARONNE TO GRAND COLOMBIER
Hello and welcome to Stage 13 – Just one mountain to climb in the Jura with a return to the brutal climb on the Grand Colombier. The mountain featured for the first time surprisingly in 2012, with a win for the exuberant French rider, Thomas Voeckler. It featured again in 2016 and more recently in 2020, with a win for Tadej Pogacar. It will…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 12 – Fast and Furious 2
Here's the sequel - Stage 12, Fast and Furious Too! Hang on to your handlebars!
STAGE 12: ROANNE TO BELLEVILLE-EN-BEAUJOLAIS
Hello and welcome to Stage 12, the sequel to Stage 11 which was fast and furious too. It was a crazy start to the race – at least 80km ridden at full gas before things settled down.
In terms of capturing the action, I decided to experiment and freewheel a bit – like the cyclists. I saw the abstract shapes of the flags, the people and the riders,…

Tour de France 2023: Stage 10 – Volcanic heat
Stage 10 was a hot one! Captured in hot colours and bold marks!
STAGE 10: VULCANIA – ISSOIRE
Hello and welcome back from the rest day. Following yesterday’s extraordinary visit to the Puy de Dôme , we see a second stage in the volcanic Massif Central, with volcanic heat to go with the terrain. It was a hot and hilly stage, in theory, with no prospect of major change in the general classification. It was hard work though and a surprise and emotional climax at…
