HOW MY PASSION FOR SPORTS ART CAME TO BE

Growing up, I could always be found with a paintbrush or baseball glove in my hand. Playing baseball up to the collegiate level and developing my artistic techniques at the same time, I couldn’t have predicted my two passions perfectly colliding to create a fulfilling career.

I graduated from The University of Tampa in 2002 where I continued my improving my art skills. Soon after, I expanded my understanding of composition, balance, and spacing in the field of graphic design by establishing my own design firm. However, it did not provide the same level of gratification that I got from painting. I decided to sell that company a few years later to pursue my dream of becoming a professional artist.

In 2005, I founded Sports Art Illustrated, which is known today as Farano Fine Art. Like most entrepreneurs, I wanted to be successful, make a very good living, and, hopefully, one day become famous for my art.

I worked relentlessly to get where I am today. What motivated me the most was the fear of failure. Through very hard work and resilience, Farano Fine Art has become the elite luxury sports art brand that exists today. I’m continuously striving for greatness, setting goals for myself as an artist, brand, business, and individual.

MLB HALL OF FAME INDUCTIONS - MY UP CLOSE & PERSONAL ACCOUNT

Image
If you aren’t aware, I am privileged to be the official artist of the National Baseball Hall of Fame since 2017. What does this mean? To celebrate the best players in baseball, I’m commissioned annually to create a painting commemorating the entire Induction class, which is a truly amazing experience! During Induction weekend, I set up a pop-up gallery inside the museum and at the Induction site to capture the experience fully. So how does it all go down? Each July the inductees are announced publicly, but select individuals are made aware in advance. I found out who would be inducted in January earlier this year so that I could prepare the concept for my painting. The actual painting however is constructed on-site, and often with an audience. No matter if you're a HOF Inductee, current MLB ballplayer, coach, or fan, watching the painting come to life is appreciated by everyone. It’s such an honor to be a part of this very special baseball tradition. Most days I can’t believe this
