This is a studio still life painted with a limited palette

of Cad Red Light, Ultramarine Blue, and Cad Yellow Light.

It's reminicient of sand lot ball played many years ago. The

glove is my first purchase, circa 1960, a six fingered, trapeze.

We would take old bats that had been broken in league play

and nail the crack in the bat, then wrap it with black tape.

We would get several more years of use out of them.

I like trying to capture the look of the old leather in the

Rawlings mitt. The baseball has seen better days also.
