Remember this guy?
Well, Mike Rubbo really liked this image:
This image has both movement and stillness, the rider a certain mystery, Who's he looking at? is he balanced immobile and getting encouragement for the trick from the viewer.I'm going to use it, if I may, to go another step to graphic art on paper. It'll be part of a series of art as propaganda for the grace and beauty of bikes and end up here - http://situp-bike-art.com
... and he sent me the picture
Mike is using art as a way to bring status and cachet to stately cycling - what a lovely idea.
If anyone knows this guy, can you let him know that he is now an artwork!
Yes, Mike the artist here. I have a print of my rubbing which I call, Heroic Kiwi Rider, waiting for him.
ReplyDeleteSo if anyone knows him, do let us know. He can contact me via my bike art site. http://situp-bike-art.com. Or better still, via this blog.
