Now that football season is over, it is time to look forward to spring training. It has been increasable to watch what David Ortiz has done the last few seasons. This painting is a small 8x8" oil catching the slugger in action. I changed a few things from the photo to make it my own. I really wanted to capture the anticipation in the crowd watching the ball in air along with Ortiz in action. I was happy with the results. I hope to do a larger painting before the smaller one sells. This painting is available in the "Daily Painting" section of my works portfolio.

Hi Erik,
We met at the NH History museum with Elaine Farmer. How's it going? I really love your paintings. I'm still playing around with watercolors but will be trying oils soon.
I have a regular job now so I can't paint as much any more but do when I can.
