His mission was to have people say, "There goes Ted Williams, the greatest hitter who ever lived." 
To me, The Kid is always my guy for the most beautiful swing, and indeed the greatest hitter that ever lived.
 Many hitting records were shattered in the steroid era, but not Ted's '41 season average of .406. That will never be touched. 
I couldn't wait to paint him. In my mind I have so many images of him to paint, and his swing will always be the first one.
