Yankee Stadium Mural

This mural of the new Yankee Stadium was one of my most challenging and rewarding projects I have done. The clients vision was a feel that you the viewer could "jump" right into the field. The length and height of the wall served the challenge because a panoramic view would not include the field or diamond. I elongated the outer boxes and seating to give the viewer the feeling that they were in the stands, and at the same time was able to fill in around the outer stadium walls with the "feeling" of surrounding buildings. This mural is 10x 16 feet in a little boys room. On the other walls and closet I used graffiti lettering to write the boys name and painted trompe lockers on his closet door. The results are a true Yankee lovers theme room. I am not sure who is happier daddy or baby....
