Next up in my World Cup series: Gareth Bale isn't it! Bale will probably be on a golf course somewhere about now. Wales returned from a 64 year absence from the World Cup but in 3 games it was all over. Brutal. Not even a Michael Sheen channeling Braveheart's William Wallace speech could save them from a group stage exit. Hopefully it won't be as long until their next participation in the tournament. Shani Rhys James was the inspiration for this piece. Like her work I used a predominantly reddish colour palette to represent fervent patriotism of the Welsh people.
