Making that oval off-center to match the card drove me insane.

I take stills from time to time, so it is possible to put something like that together. I'll be working on a piece again at the National this summer also, so if you're in Chicago.....you can see the creation process live.

Still making that decision, but I have it narrowed down to about 6 pieces.

I always hated the 1986 Topps design ever since it came out when I was a kid, but for some reason always loved the Traded Bo Jackson portrait. That card just looks great and pictures such a great athlete. Awesome piece Tim. Again.

Thanks! I totally agree with the 86 Topps design. I have always disliked it, but was pleasantly surprised at how well it translated to the art. The simple, clean design is going to look good on a wall.
