In the summer of 2019, my father-in-law, Paul Kramer, who is the executive secretary for the Kid Glove organization, asked me to create a mosaic piece of art for then retiring Red's announcer, Marty Brennaman. I was (and still am), honored to be asked and began my task of learning about Marty's life and career. It's always fun to learn about individuals when I am asked to create such pieces. My wife and I were living in an apartment during this time while our new home was being built and the working space was very compromised to say the least. Regardless, I still found it exciting and a wonderful challenge. I was surprised to learn upon completion, that I would be on the field during the artworks presentation! All in all, a wonderful experience for a wonderful man and later on, to learn that the artwork found a special place in his home amongst all his memorabilia. Thanks to Paul and to Marty!
