This painting of Jackie Robinson has great color quality that comes from the old kodachrome prints that were popular in 1950's photography. It gives the painting a feeling that does not exist in modern day photography. During that era there was a great deal of attention and detail paid to capturing photographs of athletes. Here she captures the youthful Jackie poised before throwing the ball. His eyes show the intensity that burned inside him. The painting is oil on canvas (30" x 24").
