During my career in sports art I've had some great experiences and
wonderful moments.
The photos in this section give me an opportunity to share some of
them with you.

The first, the one
and the only card show this
artist ever did. I'm here with my partners, Peggy and Frank
Steele introducing, to the world, our inaugural project, The
Hall of Fame Art Post
Cards. I remember the little boy's mother
saying to me after buying her son the first
series of cards, "Now you better get famous." |
I always braced
myself for the reactions
I would get from my subjects. The warm
handshake from Billy Williams indicated
he liked his portrait, I guess. |

In 1980 ESPN televised,
live, the Hall of Fame induction ceremonies. I was asked to
create a
painting during the telecast. In this case the subject was Duke
Snider, one of that year's inductees.

I've worn a beard
almost half of my life. Most
of the people who know me now didn't know
me then. So, for those of you who wonder? |
Wow, tennis with
Hank Aaron (a strong
serve) and Frank Torre (a good player).
I haven't the faintest idea who that is
next to me, but I hope he wasn't my
doubles partner. We would have
gotten killed. |
