Paine Proffitt is a well-regarded artist from the Philadelphia area, now based in England. He’s worked with the Boston Red Sox, Minor League Baseball, West Bromwich Albion FC, Sunderland AFC, Aberdeen FC, Port Vale FC, Grimsby Town, Aston Villa, Derby County, Nottingham Forest, Brentford and others. Proffitt also has artwork in the permanent collections of The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, The National Pastime Museum, The World Rugby Museum and exhibited at The National Football Museum.
The Canucks are Vancouver’s National Hockey League franchise. Founded in 1970, the club has been through many ups and downs, and uniforms. They’ve had great players (such as Stan Smyl, Pavel Bure, and the Sedin twins), and have reached the Stanley Cup Finals three times (in 1982, ’90, and ’11), but have never won it all. The “Canucks” team name dates back to the ’40s; it was used by a minor league outfit until the NHL came along.
This amazing, one-of-a-kind painting shows off Proffitt’s signature style. It is rustic, textured, and extremely detailed.
