lots of stunning sports art work out there produced by extremely talented artists, past and present - do any of you guys collect these sort of pieces? i would think originals and limited prints would do quite well at action. in fact i would think an exclusive deal with one of these artists would be worth exploring in terms of selling their work through an auction house store or through an actual auction - leroy nieman ain't the only guy out there producing sports masterpieces!

here's a young artist named ron stark who is an incredible talent. his father (bruce stark) was a very well know and accomplished artist who, among many things, was an illustrator for the n.y. daily news for a quarter of a century. here are a few images of ron's spectacular work (oils):













and here's an image of one his father's illustrations:
