WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) – For Simon Welch, creating an art bike to be on display during the 37th Hotter ‘N Hell Hundred was a way to jump back into creating art.

“Once I graduated from college I, kind of, sat on the sidelines in the art world,” Welch said. “I did a lot of graphic design as a career, but I never really messed with it after that. We trained with the Lincoln Center. We were in the  group with a lot of great artists and it really inspired me to want to work again.”
