FOOTBALL GROUNDS

by jamie b edwards

"I have been creating pictures of football stadiums and football grounds for six years. As a football fan and landscape artist I was always disappointed by the lack of original ‘football art’. Imagery surrounding the game is increasingly produced under the guise of ‘merchandise’, normally cheaply, mass produced and with little regard for the aesthetic qualities of the modern home. In my football ground art I hope to address this by approaching each ground as if it were any other landscape. I look for fresh and appeasing aspects, features and colours in the ground and its surround environment.

My football stadium art is proving very popular as football gifts and football presents. I am continually adding to the series and already have over 50 different football ground prints and paintings already. If your team is missing, then please fill in the request page so I can let you know when it is ready.”

As the Yankees shortstop enters the halfway turn of his farewell season, Nike’s Air Jordan brand (a longtime sponsor of Jeter) has released an incredible commercial to celebrate his final year.

Watch the full commercial for even more sports cameos here.

In loving memory of the legend 

20 years from the death of the great Ayrton Senna

Monte Carlo. ‘88. In qualifying session. Saturday afternoon.

I was already on pole. Then I was by half a second. Then one second. And I was going. I was going and I was going and I was going.

Suddenly, I was about two seconds faster than anyone else. I was kind of driving it by instinct. I was in a different dimension. I was like in a tunnel. Well beyond my conscious understanding.

Some moments when I am driving just detach me completely from anything else.

Monaco, 1988. On that day, I said to myself ‘that was the maximum for me; no room for anything more.’ I never really reached that feeling again.
