Round Rock Color Notes


"Round Rock Reinlie" 8 x 6
I posted a sketch of this ball player a few weeks ago, but now I am taking the paint to the ball games. He is the first baseman and clean-up hitter for the nationally ranked Mary Hardin-Baylor Crusaders. I am working on a bigger painting of my favorite player on that team, which I will post another time.
I like the light on the ball fiels. there is a lot of contrast and a certain atmosphere that only paint can capture!
I have a link below to a GREAT youtube video about a blind painter. The clip was produced by the Texas Country Reporter, who is interviewing me this week for a spot on their May 18 show.They are interested in my Last Year on the Farm story. Bob Phillips is a great reporter and I know he will tell it with their special flair! I will keep you posted about the actual date it airs.

  1. Love the blind painter. Just shows you what humans are able to do if they put their minds to it.
