Dodger Mookie Betts Connects painting💙🥎

Rich @richwilkie.bsky.social · 28d

In "Mookie Betts Connects," Rich Wilkie masterfully captures the split-second drama of Dodgers greatness. The bold energy of Betts’ swing explodes across the canvas, set against a darkened field where light and motion collide that define one of baseball’s brightest stars.

Big thanks to Rick McPheeters, owner of Alta Construction, for picking up my oil painting of Dodgers legend Tommy Lasorda. I wanted to capture that fiery moment every fan remembers—Tommy going toe-to-toe with an umpire, full of energy and fight.

I will be exhibiting my painting of Jack Nicklaus at Artisan Market, in Arroyo Grande.

This original painting of Jack Nicklaus captures the Golden Bear at the height of his legendary swing, a subject whose significance extends far beyond golf. As one of the most celebrated athletes in history, Nicklaus represents excellence, discipline, and timeless achievement—qualities collectors seek in enduring art. By uniting sports history with fine art, this piece offers not only aesthetic value but also long-term cultural and investment potential.

Saturday, August 23, at the Artisan Market, in Arroyo Grande near Pismo Beach, from 10am to 4pm.
1080 Cypress Ridge Parkway
Arroyo Grande, CA. 93420
I hope to see you there.
Please tell your friends to tell their friends to come and see some great art,

I am hosting several events.
The first is a talk about my time in animation and art. This is a mishmash of entertaining and humorous stories with a slide show.
The second will be a costume drawing class. I will talk and demonstrate the drawing lessons I learned in my 25 years working in animation.
