British Painter Captures Beach Volleyball at 2024 Paris Olympics

Peter Spens uses traditional methods to depict the spirit of the games against the iconic Eiffel Tower backdrop.

Spens is commissioned by the International Volleyball Federation for his third Summer Olympics.
He contrasts his work with photographers, emphasizing emotional and perceptual elements.
Spens has been painting daily from a high vantage point for nearly a week.
His artwork will culminate with the final match, capturing the event's essence.
Spens advocates for the mindful practice of painting over digital photography.
