"Myth Has It"

Willie Mays

Willie Mays made baseball greatness feel boundless, combining home-run power, speed and extraordinary reach in center field. The Say Hey Kid finished with 660 home runs, two National League MVP awards and twelve Gold Gloves, leaving a legacy that stretched from the New York Giants to San Francisco and Cooperstown. His achievements made him a standard for the complete player, while his joy and athleticism gave generations of fans memories that outlasted the games themselves. “Myth Has It” celebrates the career behind one of baseball’s most enduring legends.

In this original painting, Justyn Farano pairs Mays’ San Francisco batting portrait with “The Catch,” his over-the-shoulder grab off Vic Wertz in the 1954 World Series at the Polo Grounds. The smaller scene connects the power hitter to the defensive moment that became part of baseball history.

The philosophy behind my art has always been to make the most compelling, engaging experience for you, the viewer. I try to envision what it was like to compete against that athlete on the field. I want you to feel that grit and rawness of emotion, the athlete’s competitive fire, and passion.

As a perfectionist, my obsession of getting these details precise, takes razor focus, constant critiquing, and fine tuning. It’s not till the painting is complete to my highest of standard, till I am genuinely satisfied.
