A few months ago, a young artist by the name of Absolon Moreau posted a few of his sports related paintings. Soon after his posting, I contacted him to see if he could create some paintings for me. I chose to have him paint the 1976 Topps cards (my favorite Topps set) of the starting 8 players from the 1976 Cincinnati Reds team. After I placed my order, Absolon had some health issues to deal with and couldn't get all 8 paintings done in the time frame in which he set. He then offered to paint another portrait for me for free - due to the delay with the original order. I chose the Don Gullett card.
Absolon emailed some pictures of the paintings as he progressed - and i was floored. The email photos looked fantastic and I couldn't wait to have the real paintings. In the meantime, I showed my wife the email that contained the pictures of the paintings. She was more than impressed! (Yes, I have a beautiful, wonderful wife that encourages my participation in this great hobby!) She then asked me to contact Absolon to see if he could create a painting of my parent's wedding photo because she wanted to give my Mom something special for Christmas. Long story short, Absolon created a painting that actually brought tears to our eyes.
Please check out the photos I've attached. Note that any glare you see on the pictures is the result of my poor picture taking abilities.
Absolon Moreau is a major talent and I highly recommend his services. More importanly, above all his talent, he's a fantastic young man.
Here is a link to his website. Check it out.
