"I'm just thankful for everything, all the blessings in my life, trying to stay that way. I think that's the best way to start your day and finish your day. It keeps everything in perspective." – Tim Tebow.

Today, I am back to my traditional posts highlighting some of my favorite digital paintings. From the time I first heard Tim Tebow speak, I identified with him on a very deep level. We both share a very positive outlook on life and I was compelled to paint a portrait of Tim. He is known for his devout faith in God and charitable efforts with the disabled community. Although I am not a huge sports fan, I had the opportunity to present this painting to Tebow (through a mutual friend) and I still have my original print signed by him. Love him or hate him, he is one of the most genuine people on this planet.

Timothy Richard Tebow (/ˈtiːboʊ/; born August 14, 1987) is a former professional American football quarterback and current professional baseball outfielder in the New York Mets organization. He played college football for the University of Florida, winning the Heisman Trophy in 2007 and appearing on BCS National Championship-winning teams during the 2006 and 2008 seasons. Tebow was selected by the Denver Broncos in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft and spent two seasons with the team. He also played for the New York Jets in 2012. Additionally, he had preseason stints with the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles in 2013 and 2015 respectively.

That is a beautiful piece of art! Imagine the value it will hold in a few years! Tim does seem to be a good down to earth kind of person, and it is quite neat that he autographed your painting.

Yes, I am very grateful for the opportunity to have something signed by him, let alone my own work. Really appreciate your comment and support!

O wow, I must say that you have a great talent.
Have you drew yourself and what about others if anyone ask to draw him?
Fingers crossed 🤞

Gonna say wow myself but saw you already did XD ...anyway, great work, nice colors and I like the mood (like fire is all around, a player from hell) that this picture gives out! Nicely done!

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! Unfortunately, I am no longer accepting commissions but if that changes, I will let you know! Thank you for your kind words.

I still think to this day Tebow never got the credit he deserved while playing in the NFL.

Damn that is a rare piece of art, thanks for sharing!

amazing painting and sports looks lot of fighting spirit to play this game

Amazing painting of an amazing guy. Well done, @abrockman!

Glad you think so, yes, too bad Denver did not keep him around ;)

Tim Tebow > Tom Brady /facts/

LOL… Great comment. Completely agree :) I just don't think his Super Bowl Rings would agree with us!

Beautiful, man! You have an amazing touch. I’m sure these “digital” prints are even more incredible on the wall. Great to meet you today, and keep up the amazing work!

Thank you brother, yes, as a digital artist it is always difficult to display and my work never really takes on a full life until actually produced and hanging. Appreciate your comment and support. Look forward to much more!

Excited to see what you post next! This is the best platform for artists of all kind IMO. :)

This is so beautiful and we hope more and more such arts will come our way.

Thank you, yes, many more pieces coming. Thank you for your comment as always.

Ouff delivering as usual my man 🙏🏼

Badass that he signed it, definitely going up on the wall I can imagine 😉

Thanks brother, yes, one of my prized possessions for sure!
