Default My Favorite Artist

Graig,

All I can say is WOW!! That has to be one of my favorite paintings; gotta love Brooks, Andy and Dave in the '66 WS. I really love the way you did this painting. This one also jumps out at you and brings me back to that day in history; LOVE IT! I have this particular picture and the detail in your painting is better than the original photo. Thanks so much for posting the pic. I definitely dig it.

Oh, our family were BIG Colts fans (Baltimore that is...) so the Alan Ameche's TD's was one of my fathers favorite moments of all time; I wasn't quite around then, but he talked about it as a very exciting game from the past.

Just a little side note we moved from MD to NJ when I was younger and the company my father worked for had box seats on the 3rd base side in Yankee stadium so when the O's were in town he'd get the tickets. Loved watching your name sake growing up (even though Brooks was my hero!); he was a great third sacker.
