When I was first called to do this portrait, I was reminded of all the great times I had with the grandfather in this portrait. Except he and I weren't grandfathers then, we were just two best friends at Enid High, in fact he was the "Best Man" at the wedding of Jolene and I in 1972. And now we're just a couple of older guys. Anyway, he wanted a portrait of his family in their favorite football teams jerseys, so I thought what could I do to show them off properly? With me up above them laying on the ground, I knew I could see all the team colors, and still show their expressions properly, and have a really cool, different portrait!
