Femke Bol & her 4×400 mixed relay win; oil pastels portrait



Been enchanted with this moment since I saw it, finally got around to painting it.

I'm an Indian, but I swear, I get goosebumps even now upon watching this. Sports can really transcend boundaries. Peak human athleticism is equally wonderful for all, whether its Bolt or Bol.

As someone with inflammatory arthritis, I can't run anymore, at least not till a new magical med comes along, but running is still so captivating. It was truly a joy to work on this, and I going to make more athletes in future as I get some free time.
