We waited till she was 19 months but here she is on her first bike ride. That is an 'iBert' she is sitting in and her crazy cute helmet is 'Duck Duck Goose' by Giro.
Molly loves it but Sarah and I are having to adjust to riding with our knees apart and to going slowly. Scared of the day she starts going off by herself - My parents were brave to let me go riding 80 miles by myself when I was 16!!
One of the other cycling themed artists at the Little Black Pearl show was Ann Patrick O'Brien.
She exhibited about 4 large canvases and then a collection of smaller pieces all showing abstracted forms based on bike frames. Pretty much black and white they capture a sense of dynamism and space. The larger canvases in particular looked great centered on a wall - reminded me of the futurism after WWII and also Franz Kline.
Go take a look at her website - its not all about the bike.
I love Core 77 - so should you. But I'll just keep pointing out the bike bits for you.
