...but I have to share this card in every Matty-related thread. (FWIW - I also named my second son Mathewson and we, of course, call him Matty.)

Matty during the World Tour stop in Blue Rapids, Kansas. Unfortunately I don't own the original.

I guess I can't say 'no' to brother Jimmy!
Here's my Matty. Well, the one I painted anywho: ![]() It's based off of Conlon's famous photo, and dates to 1911, when the Christian Gentleman (along with Rube Marquard and some of the speediest speedsters of the era) led his Giants to the World Series. I normally don't say this, but the photo doesn't do the painting justice. I just got it back from the photographer's, so I'm trying to come to a final version that I'm happy with. Though in the end, I guess having a photo of a work is nothing like having the original in front of you. With that in mind, if any of you are heading to the National in a few weeks, stop by my booth and see the original!! I'd sure as hell love to meet y'all! Graig

Graig,
I agree with the others. Phenomenal painting, puts some of the paintings I have done to shame. You have some genuine talent there. Mike |

Truly amazing work Graig. It really looks like you can reach out and feel the texture of his jersey and the NY patch on his sleeve. Almost unspeakably beautiful. Seriously.

A cool photo of Matty. Check out the ball he's holding--just a bit dirty, huh?
