SHA'CARRI RICHARDSON
This piece captures a defining moment of dominance and defiance — Sha’Carri Richardson glancing back mid-race at the Paris 2024 Olympics, a symbol of both confidence and control. The gold background represents more than victory; it embodies her resilience, self-worth, and unapologetic greatness. Etched into the canvas, her own words — “I’m not back, I’m better” — echo the truth of her evolution: she didn’t return to prove anyone wrong, she rose to prove herself right. This painting is a tribute to the power of reclaiming your story
on your own terms.

BRIAN THOMAS JR.
With an 85-yard touchdown that left defenders grasping at air — and a Colts player diving at his heels — he turned potential into proof. The piece freezes that explosive run in time: the breakaway speed, the untouched stride, and the unshakable focus of a rookie who didn’t just make a play — he made a statement. It’s more than a highlight; it’s a glimpse into a future built on power, poise, and game-breaking talent.
