BASEBALL #5 "HOMEAGE TO DICK GROAT" Oil on panel 6"x6" (SOLD!)

PURCHASED BY COLLECTOR FROM NORTHERN TERRITORY, AUSTRALIA
I decided to place the ball higher up, right at my eye level, which gives it that "larger than life sense." I also wanted to give it that classic: "lets play ball feeling" through placing it under the nighttime sky and lights in the middle of a baseball diamond, on the ground. The ball is situated between 1st and 2nd base on the sand, and behind it is the nocturnal baseball field. The stadium lights are very bright, and emblematic of the "big game."
