Beautiful pieces..absolutely beautiful.

you are very gifted sir!

Thanks a lot, guys.

Matty6, I've always loved that image too. I wouldn't mind breaking into the racing scene with my work, though in the end, I think it might take a client to commission something to get me going on it. I just feel like my mind is always in the baseball mode, and now, sometimes even football and basketball - it seems to take forever for me to branch out. I'll even be doing my first hockey piece this year too, which will be very exciting!

Hey all,

Hope everyone's been doing well so far this new year.

I thought I'd post some stuff I just got back from the photographers in the past few weeks. I think it might mark my first sharing of work since December, so I figured I was off of my pace!

Before I show it, I just wanted to send a HUGE 'thank you' for all of you guys on the board for giving me so much support over the past few years, whether it's been through sales, scans (especially Chris C. for the enclosed Mantle), advice or encouragement. It's really meant the world to me - probably in ways I could never really articulate.

Anywho, I hope you enjoy!


Babe Ruth, 1922, 16" x 20"


Hank Greenberg, 1937, 16" x 20"


Joe DiMaggio, Fiorello La Guardia & Lou Gehrig, October 5, 1938, 28" x 36"


Mickey Mantle, August 7, 1955, 30" x 64"

Certainly, any comments or crits are ALWAYS welcomed. And, I do have plenty of stuff that's in-progress too, which I'd be glad to post if y'all are interested.

Thanks again,

Graig

Once again your work is incredible but I can only imagine that Mantle and the DiMaggio/Gehrig have got to be incredible to see in person!!!

Keep up the great work as you are certainly a gifted artist!!

Now get your agent going on the coffee table book/lithos/card sets/whatever so those that cannot afford an original can have some of your work as well.

That Greenberg would look great next to the letter posted in the War and Sports thread. Amazing work. Do you have license to do old publication/program covers?

Graig,
Wow. Just wow. (pardon me while I go back to stare at the DiMaggio/Gehrig in stunned silence)

Graig I love looking at any paintings you post, great work!
