Going For The Gold by Jace McTier

"Going For The Gold" by Jace McTier, 18x24 skating portrait, fine art print tribute to the 2016 World Figure Skating Championship. Limited Edition of 100. Hand signed and numbered by McTier. (Number selected at random)

Jace David McTier’s first sporting painting was commissioned before the 1996 Equestrian Olympic trials in Thomson, Georgia at the age of sixteen. The painting of a hunt scene, complete with twenty hounds and four horses and riders, was turned into McTier’s first limited edition lithograph and was used to benefit Easter Seals.

Soon he was commissioned to paint a large landscape featuring the newest models for the John Deere Corporation with 5000 limited edition prints- and helped him to be well on his way as an established artist. Almost immediately, McTier was much sought after in portraiture and also explored marine 
wildlife, historical recreations of World War II and his ever-growing love of sports.

“This kid is the next Neiman. LeRoy is a great friend of mine, I helped him get started in boxing early by inviting him to sketch Carmen Basillio in the 50’s and Jace knows his stuff. His knowledge of technique and use of color are fantastic!  – Angelo Dundee
