Really love this one for one I don't own. But, I could probably nominate 10 different ones for other favorites any given day of the week. I love those two Jackie ones shown above too.

Picking just one is kinda futile. But after looking at Post #5, I've gotta agree with Randall. Amazing texture and depth to that Mantle. And that luscious Yankees Pinstripe is just amazing. Graig absolutely nailed the soft cream-colored Uni, with the slightest amount of soiling.

So real, I can practically feel the flannel. The majestic Yankee Stadium backdrop is worthy of more heaping praise, but I'll shut up and let others post away!

All are amazing, but these two really stand out for me.

Matty,Cobb, Jackie and those wood portrait are hard to beet. I, however, am a little biased. Of my 4 Graigies, my first one(mantle shooting for the Trimble crown) is my favorite. My pic doesn't do it justice. It is crazy good in person. It is a pretty early work too.. I have known my little buddy for quite some time now. Isn't that right half pint?

Ben,

That Mantle is a great painting. I don't think I've seen it anywhere before.

Ok. So I have 2 that are my favorites.

First is, in my opinion, THE single best sports painting EVER made. Unfortunately, it is not owned by me.



Second, is my personal favorite, because of the quality of the painting, which the picture does absolutely no justice to, the subject matter,
and the fact that I own it.



and now framed(also a crappy photo)

Bnorth,

Incredible thread you start. Wow, I do like looking at all these great paintings. As many times as I have seen most of them, I love seeing them all again.
The eyes on Christy are incredible.
Mantle, is truly amazing.
Jackie Robinson and Yogi, may be my favorite, but I can say that with all of them.
Only thing better then these beauties is.........MORE. BRING ON MORE.
