Description
Artist Statement:
I like to let my artwork speak for itself. I love to see and hear the reactions that my artwork elicits. My artwork makes people smile. I often hear comments such as, “Very cool!” or “So unique!”. I am lucky to have many fans who advertise my art by word of mouth. In some cases, those fans work in some prestigious media outlets.
Me and my artwork have been featured in Deadspin, Sports Illustrated, ESPN, Bleacher Reports, FanSided, USA Today, Entertainment Weekly and Yahoo! Sports. You can also read about me in the LA Times, New York Daily News, Minnesota Star Tribune, Kansas City Star, Tampa Bay Times, and Orange County Register. I am a featured artist at several All-Star Games for the MLB and NHL. My minimalist artwork is displayed in many ballparks across the country, in several art galleries, and scattered throughout the offices of sports executives and corporate leaders. I also recently opened my own sports art gallery in Anaheim, California one block from Disneyland.
“The goal of my minimalist art is to create an instantly identifiable subject using the fewest elements, basic shapes, and color palette.” – S. Preston
My focus is to change the way sports and art collide using simplicity and clean design. The plan is very simple – create artwork that connects sports fans to their deepest passion for the game. If you are a baseball fan, my minimalist artwork should grab you almost immediately. It might trigger a nostalgic feeling with memories of attending your first professional baseball game as a kid, or of taking your kid to his or her first game.
