Here’s a new painting in progress. I’m taking suggestions; should the biker be receiving a coffee from a bystander? Should there be a cafe table with people enjoying coffees while watching the race? Or should I just finish it as in the reference photo? Vote quickly and check back to see which idea won!

I say receiving coffee from a bystander and people at cafe tables.

definitely coffee from a bystander, who happens to be Lance Armstrong himself

People at the cafe should be having coffee – not the biker. Although, the biker could have a coffee cup on his/her jersey as if it were a sponsor.

The cyclist should be drinking the coffee-he definitely needs his caffeine!! You could have someone handing off the coffee-just like the “feed stations” in the Tour.

I vote for a hand off. Serious bikers are just as serious about a quality brew-I have friends who would quite possibly ride & sip simultaneously. The print is the perfect anniversary gift for just these two. Thank you for your unique take & delicious medium.

I’m getting close to a decision- you’ll see the results in a new blog entry next week.
