- The American sports painter Leroy Neiman is best known for his brilliant colors and his frenetic energy. Born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, probably in 1927 (though some sources say 1921), he and his mother were abandoned by his father at an early age, so growing up was difficult. He studied art in Chicago, and when Playboy got its start in 1953, Neiman's career took off. Playboy has featured many of his sports and leisure paintings over the years, and he now grosses more than $10 million a year for his paintings and serigraphs. His original paintings go for up to $500,000 each. Here are some splendid examples of his sports art. from football to the Olympics.

Leroy's baseball paintings are action packed and shows spirit and motion. Beautifully rendered, bright colors in the background.

I love the Monday Night Football theme to go with all those amazing pictures Leroy Neiman has painted over the years. R.I.P. sir

Génial !
I like this guy. I never heard this name until few minutes ago while I was watching an old movie ("Top Secret" with Val Kilmer from the Zucker brothers). What a bad taste joke about Neiman's paintings!
I am not an expert, actually I am an ignorant (I hated "Casa de Miró" in Barcelona - so, I must be stupid)... but I like these paintings! Of course, I also discovered that Neiman died in june.
