Couldn't figure out how to post a pic so I just posted the link to the Youtube video of me painting it.

Hi folks, just wanted to let you know that I put the original Sean Taylor portrait back on display for the next few months. It will be hanging at the Champps sports bar in Pentagon row after being in hiding for the past year. It is a 6ft by 5ft canvas done in oil paint featuring all his different ...

At one stage I heard someone on the team yell "Bingo" after JC's snap count

Thanks folks, I now have the dilemna of figuring out how to put this together, it may have to come down to two eras and two different paintings. The modern era with RFK and the past era with the older fellas. Thanks for the help, I will let you know what happens with this.

just to clarify, these are just Redskin legends , Hall of Famers they don't have to be, just a figure of speech, looks like theres quite a few names already.

No , it's on the up and up, I was approached by the Quarterback club to maybe produce a piece of art for their upcoming Redskins luncheon in November, their annual charity event, I am the fella who painted the Sean Taylor portrait a while ago . I thought I'd better consult the better authorities on ...

Well so far I have come up with Sammy Baugh, Sonny Jurgensen, Joe Gibbs, John Riggins, Art monk, Billy Kilmer, Brian Mitchell, The Hogs, Dexter Manly, Mark Mosely, Charlie Taylor. But I am sure theres a bunch more I guess it's going to come down to personal preferences

I have an upcoming project to paint an image of RFK stadium with images of a handful of Hall of famers in the foreground, so I have decided to leave it in the hands of some rabid Redskin fans to help me out with some names. I know the obvious ones but I have to whittle it down to about 10. I hope to ...

Hi, I recently got to share the stage with some of the Redskins players as part of their annual Redskins Reads charity event at Childrens hospital. They brought out Seans Portrait and Santana Moss paid tribute to his team mate. If you look close, I'm the little guy next to Rocky Macintosh.

A new video has been released to give everyone a better idea of how the painting looks, this was shot at Childrens Hospital. The prints are now available, they are going to be 24 by 30 inch canvas prints.

You are too kind. I am doing a demo tomorrow at Starthmore Hall in Bethesda and I am going to have the new print on display, it measures 24 by 30 inch. I will be there from 11 to 4. 30 pm.

Hi,
Just got back from Hawaii and took delivery of a couple of proof prints of Seans portrait, they came out awesome so now just have to determine what would be an appropriaate size and of course pricing so won't be far off.

Thank you for the kind comments and I am already working on getting a print set up, I'd like to work it into one of the charities.
Cheers

Hi folks,
The show went very well, I heard it had a big turnout, this short video was produced to show the different stages of the painting which took aprox 150 hours of work.
Cheers

Hi Folks,
The unveiling of Sean Taylors portrait has been postponed until Jan 24th as bad weather hit and they wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to get down for the reception. Unfortunately I cannot be there as a family tragedy came up in Australia and I had to leave immediately.
Hope you ...

I will see what can be done. I just talked to the hospital today and the reception is on January 17th from 5.30 pm to 7.30 pm and they will unveil it then. Unfortunately a family tragedy has come up in Australia and I have to leave in two days so I can't be there. The person to contact at the ...

Hey I would love to post a pic but I have to wait till it's unveiled as CH wants it to be a surprise. As soon as it's uncovered I'll send a pic
Cheers
