With great honor, Artist
Justyn Farano has taken
the crown as the heir to
the throne in the fine art
kingdom of sports and
entertainment.
Over the course of his career, Justyn has created a significant art portfolio.

Creating amazing art of the best athletes is one thing, having many of those same athletes own that very art is on a whole other level. It’s truly the greatest testament that any artist could wish for.
Where The
Passion began
Farano’s passion for sports and art stems back to an early childhood, playing baseball and drawing sports figures for as long as he could remember. In the eyes of Farano as a child, almost like a superhero, the extraordinary glove and sweet swing of Ken Griffey Jr. was an obvious favorite of Justyn’s growing up.
As a young boy, Farano read Beckett magazine and recalls their annual art issue. This is where Justyn discovered what many other great artists were producing and says what really inspired him to explore in different mediums. Farano began oil painting at the age of 13 and became fascinated with its versatility.
