Bicycles at the beach


Together
29" x 24"
I love a photo Gretchen sent me of 2 bicycles parked at Morgan House in Dublin, Ohio. The lines were complex and the bikes seemed almost human. It inspired these bikes at the beach. Here's my progress.

Figuring out the background
Love the lace-- but not here
The fence and sand are monochrome, but not really
Black tires stood out, added action
Eventually I exchanged the black tires for slightly more subdued fabric
