    Some of these are absolutely stunning! I especially like the DWade one. Very powerful without all the vibrant colors some of them employ.

    Great collection!

    Brilliant, would love to some more done with a Rugby Union or more UK football teams in mind. Love the one with the lady stretching and the for sale sign on her car. Also, the one with the two runners looking at the map of the open road, superb…thanks for sharing these.
