Onto Another Sector PR23-10
The pair of Jonas Koch (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Juri Holman (Movistar) were the first to escape off the front of the peloton. So they were the first to hit Sector 24 with enough of a gap that the flotilla of press and race motorcycles was allowed to slot in behind them. I loved the image of the foreshortening that shows the arch announcing the entrance into this sector in the background enough that I felt it was worthy of being captured in watercolors. That is part of my selection process of what I chose to paint. I look for images that tell the story of the race, but then I also look for a captivating image as well. After all, this is also about making art.
