Huffy Drawing</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is another commission for my dear friend and coaching mentor Jeff Potter. John Huffman was the First Baseman for Jeff's High School team. Huffy recently passed away. This was the first tribute drawing that I have ever done. I hope that I captured Huffy in a way that does the man and his life justice for his family and friends! </div>

Coach Sid Lansberry Drawing</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My good friend Coach and Author Jeff Potter recently commissioned me to do a drawing of another friend of his Coach Sid Lansberry. Coach Sid is the Baseball Coach for the Clearfield Bison High School team in Clearfield PA. I had already started the drawing and Coach Potter contacted me and told me that Coach Sid was very close to 600 wins in his coaching career. I started thinking about the composition of the drawing, and how to incorporate the information about his 600th win into the drawing when that happened. I came up with the ball and engraved bat idea. On May 17, 2017 Coach Sid got his 600th win, and I finished the drawing. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
CONGRATS to Coach Sid, and Thank You to Coach Jeff for always supporting my artwork, and mentoring me in the wonderful game of Baseball. </div>

Christian is the Son of my best friend Alberto. Christian and my youngest Son Jacob played baseball together a couple years ago. Alberto and I coached the team. Alberto also coaches Navy Youth Hockey who Christian is playing for this season. This drawing is 11x14, and the hockey puck is actual size (1"x3")<br />

Restored double matte and frame</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The 12x30 drawing was a commission. The origonal print and frame and double matte had gotten wet in a basement. My client wanted me to redraw the image, and re-matte and frame it. I actually cleaned the mattes and frame and reused them after redrawing the image.</div>

Joshua with Nick Markakis and Aaron Sept.2010</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Everyone that knows me, is aware that coaching Youth Baseball is one of my passions. This Spring will be my tenth season. This year, the first boys that I coached, are graduating from Kent Island High School. Among them are Aaron and my son Joshua. At this point I have coached a couple hundred boys. I have often spoken to Joshua and wondered if any of them would ever go on to play Baseball or another sport after High School.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Aaron Grzymkowski just became the first, however not for Baseball. In addition to Youth Baseball, Aarons first love has always been Football. This week Aaron, who had been recruited by, committed to play ball for Towson University here in Maryland. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I am so excited for him, and his family. I applaud the work ethic that he has had for so many years to achieve the honor of playing college ball. As Joshua said to Aaron, "The grind has paid off, you earned this!" I couldn't agree more and am proud to have had him call me Coach!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
One of the greatest baseball players of all time, Pete Rose will probably never be inducted to the Baseball Hall of Fame. His record 4256 base hits will probably never be broken, and he still holds 17 MLB records.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As a youth Baseball coach for many years, I wish all my players would play the game like Pete.</div>

Recently I went to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown NY with my Father and my two sons. This drawing and story, were inspired by that trip, and they are both for my Pop.<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
Cooperstown</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
As I walked around the Baseball Hall of Fame, and the town of Cooperstown NY., I could see that this place has a magical effect. I watched one young boy as he looked for his heroes, and looked for souvenirs from them. He knew his baseball history, and spoke of players and games he had seen. As he stood before the plaque of Willie Mays, he told the other boys that "Willie had made him a baseball fan." He told them about Willie and "The Catch", and he told them about Bobby Thomson of the New York Giants, and the "Shot Heard 'Round the World" in the 1951 National League pennant race against the Brooklyn Dodgers, "The Giants win the pennant, the Giants win the pennant" he said.<br />
Later in one of the memorabilia shops, he found a Mays autographed baseball. Disappointed, he knew it was too much money, and handed it back to the man at the counter. In another shop however, he did find a Thomson signed ball that he would buy. For the first time ever, he possessed a baseball treasure that he had wanted for many years.<br />
That little boy was my Pop, and the other little boys were me and my two sons. He is 76 now, I am 50, and the boys are 16 and 11. For just a couple days though, Cooperstown NY. had turned us all into little boys again. Discovering and loving the amazing game of baseball together.<br />
MAGICAL!!!</h3>

Novak Jokavic Drawing</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I am not a tennis fan. I rarely watch tennis. Over the years however, I have watched matches, and have an understanding of the game. This past Sunday night I turned on the television to watch the ESPN Sunday Night Baseball featuring my Baltimore Orioles. Due to a three hour rain delay, ESPN was still broadcasting the US Open Finals featuring Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. I dont think I have ever enjoyed watching tennis as much!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Novak won in four sets, claiming his tenth Grand Slam Singles Title. He is currently ranked No.1 in the world (164 weeks), while Roger Federer is considered by many as the greatest tennis player of all time. Roger has won 17 Grand Slam Titles.</div>
