Graig,
Though I am partial to all things Gehrig, I gotta say that Ruth looks great. Those wide action shots look so visually stunning. This along with the Wagner and Cobb are some fantastic paintings. I can only image how stunning and vibrant they must be in person.

The Tyree is also spectacular. It looks so realistic...It's amazing.

(Spoken under breath- Damn! I gotta start saving for another one of these.)

I am in awe of that one as well. The pre-war paintings are incredible, but the Reds painting is nothing short of hypnotizing. Perhaps the greatest line-up of all-time (and the greatest portrayal of it, to boot!)

Thanks so much, guys. I'm thrilled you all dig them!

That Reds team was really something else - I wish I got to see them. My father was at one or both of the games at the Stadium, and he said that the Yankees just never had a chance. That Cincy line-up was SO deep!

Painting it was fun too, as each of them have such unique facial characteristics. Foster looks like an absolute madman. As does Rose. But yeah, hopefully the resemblances are what they should be.

Once I get it properly photographed, I'll certainly post it.

Hey guys,

Just got these two back from the photographers. Still have a little color-correcting to do, but I thought you'd enjoy!

Thought I was wearing 3-D glasses looking at the Tyree Catch. Amazing, Graig!

I thought the same thing! Keepin' the background a bit out of focus works wonders!
