This painting is once again from my junior year painting class. This was our final painting, but it isn’t my best. I used water color on a very big piece of water color paper. The subject is Skip Schumaker, who was my favorite baseball player for many years. He played for the Cardinals until this season when he was traded to the Dodgers. I am currently without a favorite player because I can’t root for anyone who isn’t a Cardinal. This painting is not finished like most of my others. I would like to paint more Skip Schumakers on both sides and add more lines to simulate motion. If I ever return to this painting to refine and complete it, I’d love to frame it to hang in my parent’s restaurant or in our basement.
