Now, about the man.
 
Willie Mays' career unfolds like a symphony, each season a movement in a grander composition of athletic brilliance. From the dusty fields of the Negro Leagues to the shining stadiums of Major League Baseball, Mays played with a joy and flair that transcended the game's boundaries. His journey was not just marked by the towering home runs or the gold gloves but by the way he brought a childlike wonder to the diamond, making the extraordinary seem effortless.
 
Imagine a player who could hit with power and average, run the bases with the speed of a sprinter, field his position with unmatched grace, and throw with unerring accuracy. This was Mays, the embodiment of baseball's heart and soul, a player who seemed born to grace the field. His iconic over-the-shoulder catch in the 1954 World Series isn't just remembered for its athletic brilliance but as a moment of pure, unadulterated joy in the game.
 
Mays' narrative is punctuated by accolades — two MVP awards, 24 All-Star appearances, 660 home runs — yet these numbers barely scratch the surface of his impact. His legacy is the indelible mark he left on fans and players alike, a testament to how one man's love for the game can inspire millions. In the tapestry of baseball history, Mays is a thread of gold, shining brightly, a hero of the game whose story is told with reverence and awe, reminding us why baseball is indeed America's pastime.

“Every time I look at these prints, I think of my father. If artists can channel their adversity into incredible works of art that we get to enjoy, then we should challenge ourselves to turn our struggles into something that can benefit others.”
