I t’s been a privilege to be invited by @LeTrot to paint winner of the GNT Paris Turf series winner. Given just two hours to complete the painting for presentation to the winning owner was a little bit stressful at the start, but I must admit I’m delighted with the result.

I was accompanied by many admirers and one of the kids gave wise advice to add a whip in left hand of the driver 😂 I did!
Many thanks to my friend Anne Beatrice for her assistance and entertainment of my visitors, giving me opportunity to totally focus on work.. I did it!

Owner of Elvis Madrik, Jean Michel Baudoin, seems to be very happy with freshly created painting of his champion. I was told the piece went a proper show-off-round in his proud hands 🙂
