Jane Rubin — a biological, feminine woman — an advanced ballerina in childhood — is more athletically coordinated than the athletes she was painting and drawing.
Jane's innate athletic coordination, and innate visual-spatial and musical talents, plus muscle memory, enable her to paint and draw other athletes in motion — without thinking. These live-action paintings and drawings of male baseball players were created at games between 2006 and 2012 — in minutes or just seconds — while the player was in motion. Jane Rubin, overly humble like her family, was in the front rows making this art without anyone representing her. That entire time, the disgraceful, overweight Yankee Organization, Steinbrenners, Jeters, Randy Levine, and some YES Network broadcasters — envious of Jane Rubin's genuine artistic talents and her talented, overly humble parents and grandparents — never introduced her as "Professional Artist Jane Rubin" — allowing millions of sports fans to wrongly view her as a groupie.
Meanwhile, the Yankees and other pro sports leagues constantly promoted the cheesy art of overweight LeRoy Nieman — who actually was an overweight dude — whom no one in the art world respects. In general, the Yankees, MLB and sports-entertainment/mass-media companies consistently promote "stuff" like photo-based fan art illustrations and giant, airbrushed-looking fan art paintings that no serious art curator or collector would show or purchase, unless they also have tacky taste, or are doing it to get patronage. Sport-entertainment companies and media platforms promote standard fan art to their mass-market demographic. While there are exceptions, overall, they are not qualified to judge serious artistic talent and have no legal right to smear mine. Lawsuits forthcoming. Despite the severe financial hardship they caused, most of the money will go to charity. View slideshow.
