Street Games
I created a series of painting with the theme, Street Games.
Acrylics on paper.
The most popular street games in my neighborhood
are basketball, double dutch, and handball.
Basketball

There is a guarantee that you’ll find a basket ball court within a block and half radius in my neighborhood, no joke and no LOL. This is a serious pass time for many, young and old, male and female. There are serval basketball tournaments held every year.
This was not a tournament but you couldn’t these local guys that. It seemed like they were channeling Jordan, Russell, Johnson, Chamberlain, O’Neal and Erving.
I could go on and on………anyway these guys were playing between catching their breathe 5 minutes into the game. Bless their hearts, they had the competitive spirit. People ask me all the time if the the guy made the shot. I say with all the excitement I forgot (I'm sure it did) ha ha ha!
