Buck O'Neil!

John Hare April 8, 2016

Here's some more Notable Missourian artwork for a book on baseball legend Buck O'Neil (published by Truman State University Press). This illustration shows young Buck and some friends watching a baseball game through a fence.

Approved rough sketch.  I ended up moving the fence and the ball field up for the final art. — Approved rough sketch. I ended up moving the fence and the ball field up for the final art.

I've been Sketching up some roughs for a Notable Missourian book on Buck O'Neil. This is the one I just finished. It shows Buck while serving in the U.S. Navy getting the news that Jackie Robinson had entered the major leagues.
