My Football Art in 49er's Owner's Suite
As some of you know I was contracted to paint five paintings
for the San Francisco
49ers Levi's Stadium art collection.
I had hoped to have the opportunity to paint Patrick Willis for the
stadium but they had me do some other paintings. This painting for my Doctor was a great
opportunity to paint one of my favorite players playing in the NFL now. The photo at the left is of me in the owner's suite at Levi's Stadium with my pieces of football art on the wall.
