Grande Motte Tignes Val D’Isere Large Ski Painting For Sale
To celebrate the near end of the ski season I had to do my favourite ski painting as a large version. I love this one of the skiers and snowboarders exiting the funicular at Tignes / Val D’Isere on the way to the cable car to scale the heights of Grande Motte.
Next season’s plans are being laid to visit Verbier, St Moritz and Zermatt on a grande tour by train and skis. Forget summer, lets have another winter.
I love Tignes and Val d’Isere ski area. It is awesome and unforgettable. My very first skiing and snowboard paintings were based on this huge ski area and I have been returning to this area as my main motif ever since. This painting is a real beauty setting off from the top of the Grande Motte cable car with wind blown snow whistling around your ankles.
Grande Motte, top of Glacier piste setting off to ski the gacier skiing snowboard painting
The cable car terminal is a photographers delight and I have recently made a short film about this special destination which will be released soon. The Glacier itself is a perfect gradient and the snow conditions are often perfect with the peak acting as a bit of a powder magnet.
The Grande Motte glacier is one of my favourite places in the world. Arriving at the top of the funicular for the first coffee of the morning is unforgettable and the place I always start on Christmas morning skiing. Then onto the top of the glacier via the Grande Motte cable car. The top of this cable car is very special to me. I find it an extreme and exciting place, right next to the peak of Grand Motte towering above with views spanning out in every direction.
Top of Funicular Grande Motte Tignes. Snowboarding skiing paintings for sale
This is one of the most classic ski paintings I have done. sat at the cafe at the top of the Funicular at Tignes with my morning coffee painting the skiers and snowboarders as they race towards the first run of the day or catch the first cable car. The line of skiers racing past with the cool ski instructor in red just chilling having seen this over eager race for season after season.
Top of Henri piste at Tignes & Val d’Isere ski painting
Top of the Henri piste at Tignes and Val d’isere has been quite a subject for me with the Tufs chair lift overhead and the piste seeming to disappear into the sky in the ever expanding distance. It always raises the thought in me as I stop at the edge of the piste to check out the off piste drop to paranoid piste. So wonderful and fun with the steep descent opening into a beautiful powder field and then opening to a full speed blast across the lower slopes. But watch out for the unexpected lips of powder dropping into shallow bowls.
Check out the video below of some skiing and snowboarding in Tignes and Val d’Isere and some of the paintings of these famous pistes and lifts. And see why you have to be careful on the off piste descent from top of Henri piste.
Chamonix Mt Blanc the Aiguille Du Midi and Vallee Blanche 3842m
Chamonix is the centre of atmosphere with the epic valley views of Mt Blanc and the cable car up to the Aguille du Midi at 3842. This is an incredible place on top of the earth with access to the world famous Vallee Blanche off piste itinerary from the top of the cable car right down to Chamonix valley.

This is a beautiful Chamonix oil painting, 80cm x 80cm x 4.5cm deep on canvas. Full of texture and colour this painting captures the atmosphere beautifully. After leaving the Aiguille Du Midi cable car and ice tunnel you are straight onto the arete en route to the Vallee Blanche with a view all the way down to Chamonix. A rope guide is all that stops you from taking the direct route back to Chamonix.

My paintings are all about the ultimate joy in life which we can feel. They work to try to capture the joy and feelings of upliftment which we al seek to find through whatever we are doing.
oil painting on canvas for sale, inspired by the starting line up for Caribbean RORC 600 race from last year in Antigua
We all love to have fun, enjoy life, smile and be happy. Behind these emotions is a beauty which we can access at these special and rare times of pure pleasure, in whatever place or activity it may be.
I have spent much of my life chasing this illusive and special beauty which we feel in our times of joy and happiness; from the Himalayas, to the Pacific islands, from hedonistic skiing in the alps to sailing and surfing in the Caribbean, from spiritual gurus to beautiful women, from sunning in the Indian Ocean to blissful meditating in the depths of Asia’s spiritual heritage.
Large Paintings For Sale
I have chased this nugget of gold all round the world and it has been a lot of fun, it’s a really great job to have to do, but someone has to!
I always have my camera or paint brush to hand to capture these moments of pure happiness. When I hit on a particularly rich seam of pleasure, happiness, joy and fun I rush in to capture its essence. In these images and especially the paintings I have strived to distil this illusive path to joy and pleasure into a concentrated form. In my paintings I have used special techniques of light and dark, sparkling colours, inspirational brush strokes, gold and silver leaf and everything else which can stimulate these feelings of upliftment and pleasure. I try to produce a link from beyond the physical to make images which replicate these feelings in the paintings, once I have returned home. Fun, joy, happiness and pleasure rule the waves and oceans, so take a look at the painting to see if it works for you. It does for me. I love my paintings, do you?
