I love the colors and brushstrokes on this piece. And that little peek of the KC Heart on Satch’s sleeve. ❤️

🔥⚾️🎨 If I were to commission a sports artist to create a piece for me I can’t decide which pose of the greatest pitcher who ever lived I should have them use as reference.🤔

🔥🏀🎨 Staying in this month’s theme of old school basketball, check out this wonderful Dr. J artwork by artist Steve Colyer. I love the little “drips” of paint here and there - I think they subtly add to the graffiti-like feel of the piece.

A beautiful piece & a reminder that an Artist Spotlight on Moore is long overdue.

🔥⚾️🎨 🔥⚾️🎨 Dick Perez’s Diamond Kings get a lot of attention but don't go to sleep on his 1983 Donruss Hall of Fame Heroes set. As a kid just beginning to learn about baseball history (and art!) an integral part of my formative years.

🔥⚾️🎨 This Hank Aaron piece was the first work I saw by artist Brent Naughton. Online viewing doesn’t do justice to how much those colors pop on that background.

🔥⚾️🎨 Hall of Famer Ted Williams lost nearly 5 full seasons to military service in WWII & the Korean War. So it’s fitting that artist Matthew Lee Rosen recreated The Kid’s iconic swing as a little green army man.

🔥⚾️🎨 These player portraits from artist Jason Drumheller remind me of some of the weird oddball issues Topps was known for in the 1960s and early 70s - but a heck of a lot cooler and more beautiful.

🔥⚾️🎨 I love artist Mike Right’s illustration work for the St. Louis Cardinals. A fun, playful style that hearkens back to the glory days of sports cartoonists in the 1940s, 50s, and 60s.

It’s been fun mixing all the things I love into my art and playing around with new styles.
This one was a vibe! it reminded me of all the smooth, swaggy basketball players I grew up watching.
Here’s a quick look from sketch to final.
