Hey guys,

Thought I'd start this bad-boy up again, as I just got a bunch of paintings back from the photographers.

The majority of them are on the smaller side, as I've been working a lot on these smaller guys when I take breaks from the large canvases. I guess because they're a little less involved, they are a bit quicker to get done.

Babe Ruth, 1922

I have about five more that need to be photographed in the next week too, so I'll post those when they come back into the studio. Also, I have a ton of in-progress stuff that I can post if anyone's interested.

And if not, that's cool too.

Hope y'all enjoy!

I think you're getting better at this Graig, if that's even possible.

That Strawberry is absolutely breathtaking!

Hell yeah I want to see more!

Great work, Graig. Love the way the background pops on the Ruth.

GKreindler 01-11-2011 02:56 PM

Thanks a lot, guys!!!

I'll have to take some photos of the in-progress stuff tomorrow, as my camera seems to be a little bit on the fritz. Being that I'm so bad with it to begin with, maybe I should just cut my losses and throw it into the street...

Ben my son is a professional photographer and takes pictures for pro teams. It is amazing what he can do with a camera just like Graig does with his brush. I was just trying to compliment his work.

This was directed to Graig..not you...not sure what happened..must have hit quote vs post. Sorry for the confusion :). Just giving Graiger the grief he deserves for being my friend.

Congratulations on your Ruth, Ben - I'm jealous.

I still can't get over that Strawberry. It's insane - it may even be on par with the Mathewson Graig did. ;)

I've logged into Net54 more in one week than I ever have, just to look at that Strawberry painting again.

I'm not trying to embarrass you, Graig!

Those mid-80s Mets jerseys really pop on the canvas though - love to see one of Orosco kneeling on the mound, flinging his glove into the air, or of Knight trotting home at the end of Game 6.
