What a great thread. Keep them coming peeps. It's inspiring me to look for and buy some artwork for the house.

Not paintings as such, but still art imho. I love classic old cycling posters. Will post a few later/tomorrow.

Norman Rockwell was a 'mainstream' bicycle illustrator and produced good work. Skilful and talented for his audience on a Saturday evening..!

Both Miss Goodbody and I occasionally host 'art evenings', where we make a powerpoint slideshow of our favourite paintings, show them to the invitees, and discuss their merits. Personally, I like to "Dali" my guests, while Miss Goodbody likes to "Chagall" who turn up.

Does she do it for Manet, or just the massive Pollocks?

Not a painting; Picasso - Bull Head. Found object sculpture using saddle and handlebar.

Unknown artist, but imagine sitting on that saddle for more than a few minutes.
