Commissioned Baseball Player Portrait

My friend Jessica, a fellow OT and former classmate of mine, asked me to paint this portrait of her husband Brian from his college baseball days as a birthday present. He is now a teacher and baseball coach for Greene County Tech. A photograph capturing this play hung framed on the wall in their home. She told him it fell and was going to be reframed...but instead it was on its way to me via the US postal service! I didn't take a pic of the original photograph, but here's the "artist's rendering"...

Need any unique birthday or wedding present ideas? Message me for sports portraits, pet portraits, last names/initials, or any home decor art for a one of a kind gift!

XOXO,
Katie

  1. This is awesome! I wasn't sure where to find your email address. (ill keep looking around to find it so I can message you as well) I was just curious if you would do a painting of a picture for me? And a quote for it? Its actually the picture of my husband and I, in my 'about me' on my blog. Its the one where we are doing the dip.
    Someone had came across my picture and painted it and then contacted me and told me they would send it to me but never did and I loved it!! I want it for our gallery wall i will be working on soon! Please let me know if you could do that :) you are an awesome artist!
