Fort Worth resident and 3D chalk artist, Jan Riggins, turned the Texas Rangers success story into a work of art on Nov. 4 on the sidewalks in Shops at Park Lane.
Riggins dedicated approximately 18 hours to create an awe-inspiring anamorphic art piece of Texas Rangers’ shortstop Corey Seager, now found in the Shops at Park Lane. This unique 3D art style, known as anamorphic, springs to life when viewed through a camera lens.
“I’m coming out for a series of pieces, mainly just holiday stuff,” Riggins said about her original plan before it changed to the Rangers’ win. “It was it was the night before that I messaged them and asked if I could do something totally different. It’d be really cool if we did something for the Rangers.”
The painting itself portrays Seager’s moment during Game 1 in the World Series when he scored the game-tying home run in the ninth inning. This piece is just one of four that Riggins plans to create at The Shops at Park Lane. The first one was situated on the street, while the next two are slated for November 18 and December 2, promising a festive holiday twist.
“I was really excited because I can tell that they put an emphasis on the art of working with local artists,” Riggins said about the area.
During her live painting, there will be music and giveaways from 12 – 2 p.m. The public is encouraged to attend. After Thanksgiving, Riggins will continue her artistic journey by creating 3D chalk masterpieces every weekend along Main Street in Grapevine.
