Spring Training or Bust poster
I used sketches from pages of the 2007 season to create this poster that went in the back of my friend's bus as she drove us to the game.
Earlier before the game had started, I managed to get Dave Barkowski's autograph on a blank page that I then used for the game's sketches.
Astros vs. Marlins - Spring Training 03/21/08
On this page: Barkowski
At first Oswalt was pitching so all I got of Barkowski was him sitting on the bench but eventually he was told to warm up. I was standing right by him the whole time so I got a lot of up close sketching in.
At one point, Michael Bourn came by and I got a high-five outta him!
Late in the game, Hunter Pence came out of the game and signed some autographs including one on my poster I had made for him in the 2007 season.
I used this sketch from a 2007 game to reference the poster.
And here's the poster itself, autographed and all! It now hangs up on my wall along with the ticket stub from the game and an article I found on Pence.
