I must say that you did a terrific job of bringing that B/W image to life!
That being said, it's no surprise because you continue to amaze me with your talent.
Amen.

Hey guys,

Hope everyone's keeping cool as summer winds down.

So, I got these three back from the photographer today. Actually, there were five in total, but the other two I can't show just yet.


Babe Ruth, 1928, 16" x 20"


Ed Walsh, 1913, 14" x 20"


Kankol, 30" x 34"

I wish I had more of an idea when the Kankol image was from, but the information on the man is scarce. I do know that he was with the team between 1934 and 1949 or so, and that's a pretty large window. There doesn't seem to be anything in the photograph to give away when it was from.

Anywho, as per usual, any comments/critiques/problems/whatever are always welcome.

Thanks for checking 'em out!

Graig

I think you have achieved this Graig!!

I do have a question.....who are some of the players you would like to paint that are not "sexier" names of sports history. I am just curious as to who you would paint for yourself to hang on your wall if you had the time and opportunity.

Keep up the great work!!
