Kane, Sean

"I source vintage baseball gloves and research baseball's rich history as I design and create each painted glove. My baseball glove art is in the collection of the National Baseball Hall of Fame & Museum, Cooperstown, and the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, Kansas City. Painted Gloves have been commissioned by the Philadelphia Phillies, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, and featured as fundraising items for the Milwaukee Brewers Fantasy Camp, the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation and the Richie Ashburn/Harry Kalas Foundation. Paintings are in the private collections of Hall of Fame ball players and baseball fans across the U.S. Painted Gloves have been exhibited in the 'Chasing Dreams' exhibit at the Sherwin Miller Museum of Jewish Art, Tulsa, and at West Virginia University. They’ve been subject of a solo show at Bergino Baseball Clubhouse, New York City, and even displayed in the Visitors' Clubhouse at Milwaukee Brewers' Miller Park. ESPN.com, NBC Sports.com and MLB Network Radio have featured my baseball glove artwork. I was named 'Artist of the Month' by the National Art Museum of Sport in January 2016. I've been a professional artist for 25 years, creating illustrations for some big hitters in the publishing and corporate worlds including The New York Times, Amazon.com, The Wall Street Journal, Charles Schwab, and Target Stores, among others. I'm a Chicago-area native now residing near Toronto with my wife and two Little Leaguers."--https://seankanebaseballart.com/about, 2021
