Mosley is also currently the official artist artist for Team GB and produced paintings for the 2024 Paris Olympics , externaland the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

He said: “My painting is a celebration of Glasgow.

“It aims to capture the spirit of the city through its iconic landmarks and unique culture, combining those with the sports represented at this year’s Commonwealth Games.

“I’m really looking forward to the Games, painting live, and showing Glasgow what I do.”

Adrian Lismore, chairman of the Commonwealth Sport Foundation, said: “The Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games are a chance to create a cultural and artistic legacy that lasts far beyond the closing ceremony.

“With Ben’s work, the Games will leave Glasgow not just with memories of great performances, but with a vibrant visual depiction of the city, its people, and what was achieved here in the summer of 2026”.

Glasgow previously hosted the Games in 2014 and stepped in to stage the 23rd edition after the Australian state of Victoria withdrew due to soaring costs.

The Games, which will be held from 23 July to 2 August, will feature more than 3,000 athletes from 74 participating countries.
