"Many jockeys, when they know that they won't be caught, they will pose real pretty for the photo finish.  I close cropped this, and used neon-like colors to bring attention more to the jockey."

Race  Track  Rummy
"This is a common game played in most jocks rooms around the country.  If you look closely, you'll see some cheating going on. That doesn't happen too often.  I tell people that they'll be getting two paintings if they buy this, for the price of one."






"This shows the action one jump out of the starting gate."

Who Dropped the Tickets
"Most people know that jockeys aren't supposed to be betting.  I tried to bring the viewer into the interchange going on in the painting.  The jockeys are eyeing each other trying to figure out: 'who dropped the tickets?'"







 

 

"This is a tribute to all the pounds I lost while sitting in whirlpools like these.  Many jockeys must lose 3-5 pounds every racing day to make weight.  This is the weight loss room at Bay Meadows.   I changed the rules on the red sign to add a little humor." J_getting_kinks_out.jpg (20450 bytes)
Getting the Kinks Out

Close Quarters

"One of the things that I love about painting racing scenes is the freedom to use strong colors that you see in racing.  This is an up close shot focused entirely on the jockeys.  The colors jump out at you."
