Opening day!
I love baseball.
In my next life I would like to play first base for the New York Mets.
One of my biggest thrills in my illustration career was when I received a call from Major League Baseball.
I had the honor of doing illustrations for the 2008 World Series and and Playoff programs.
Each program is in the Baseball Hall of Fame! So in a round about way I made it in!
I still pinch myself thinking about that day.

The idea was to send these oversized promotional postcards (8.5x5.5) as a mailer. The one and only card I made was the Hackers aging slugger Crash McGee. I sent one to an art director at MLB. Mailers do work!  |
