Graig, as always, your paintings look so very, very realistic!

Graig,
I have to admit, I've always had the same opinion of that card. I think that a lot of people have a mental image of Ruth as old, fat, lazy and tired. Instead, his playing career, right up until the last couple of years, demonstrates that he was strong and fast, and known as being pretty athletic. I think that images like that card have not helped his overall image for modern generations. Your painting does bring to life that photo in a different way. He still looks old and tired, but not as bad as the card made him appear. Really neat to see your take on the image! kevin
