Here are a couple of photos I took at the event. They were taken with my camera, up high in the Owner's box which is why the "closeup" is so fuzzy. You can get the idea of what it was like, though. The man on the right doing the unveiling is the Mariners CEO.
I'll be putting some better "screen capture" shots from the TV coverage on my website when I get a chance.
(If the photos aren't here yet, they're coming. I'm still having trouble adding images to my SOG posts.)

Congratulations!!
I have a pretty good imagination yet I can't imagine how you must have felt. What an incredible experience that must have been for you.
I am very happy for you.
And I hope you get that well deserved nap.

Congratulations Michele!
I think you probably have several hundred more fans right here in the Forum. I hope we can all attend your next big unveiling, perhaps within the months ahead!
I have only known one artist who has had as much wide exposure with an introduction of a work, and his work was the new reverse side of the penny in 1959! I hope this painting will circulate and create amazing new opportunities for you.
Well done, and truly awesome photos of what must have been an even more awesome experience!
Garth

Congratulations
This is great Michele. You may have opened up a long list of future commissions for other retiring baseball players.

I hope so, David. Yesterday I sent out thank you letters to all the baseball and political dignitaries I met at the event. I included samples of my other work and suggestons for possible future portraits (significant milestones in baseball, retirement of other executives, or family portraits.) We'll see.....!
