Serco Prize 2014 entry

I have submitted this drawing for the Serco AOI Prize for Illustration 2014 run by the London Transport Museum and The Association of Illustrators (UK). The theme is London Stories. 

Entitled The Great Race my drawing was inspired by the BBC show Top Gear and their story of the Race Across London which was won by a bicycle! There are so many races held in London, from marathons, Olympic and Paralympic events, bike races including Bromptons and penny farthings to the City of London Guild pancake races and the Great Christmas Pudding race.

The view is from inner east London with St Paul's in the distance and is imagined.

The drawing is hand drawn felt pen with colouring in Photoshop.
