Oakland Athletics

The 17th in the series of 30 MLB Fields is the home of the Oakland Athletics – O co. Coliseum.  The unusual 6 floor seating area in the outfield was built to satisfy Al Davis, the Oakland Raiders owner, to provide more seating and lure the football team back from L.A.

Tampa Bay Rays

Tropicana Field, home of the Tampa Bay Rays, is the 16th ball park in the series of 30.  More than half way now.  Woo Hoo!  This field is another of the domed fields.  I don’t find them as interesting to paint as the open air fields.

Chicago White Sox

U. S. Cellular Field is the home of the Chicago White Sox.  It is number 14 in the series of 30 that I am painting and the only field painted as a night scene.  This field is distinguished by the “exploding scoreboard” that shoots off fireworks after a home run or a win and it is topped by spinning pinwheels.

Turner Field Atlanta Braves

Turner Field, home of the Atlanta Braves, is the 13th field in the series of Major League Baseball parks that I have painted for the Kickstarter project.  The Braves are my team.  I grew up in Georgia and we were Braves fans.  We went to Florida for Spring Training to watch them each year.  We suffered when they had bad seasons and celebrated those good years.  And while I went to more games at Fulton County stadium than I have at the newer Turner Field I look forward to seeing more here.  It’s one of those really large stadiums that has the feel of a small baseball field.

Just completed number 11 in the series of 30:  Citi Field, home of the New York Mets.  One of the most unusual things about Citi Field is that it is the only MLB park with orange foul poles instead of yellow.

Just finished Chase Field – Home of the Arizona Diamondbacks.  It’s the first domed field that I’ve painted.  It was a very different experience than the others.   There are 5 more domed fields to paint.

Because of the hot weather in Arizona,  Chase is completely air-conditioned.  Wow!

This is the 10th painting in the series.  Just 20 more to go!  🙂
