The shutdown defenseman of a championship run
This portrait honors Colton Parayko, one of eleven paintings I created during the St. Louis Blues’ historic 2019 Stanley Cup Playoff run. The 6'6" Canadian, drafted by the Blues in 2012, was a pivotal member of the team throughout the regular season and playoffs.
Inside the Art: The Story Behind Colton Parayko
Parayko recorded two goals and ten assists in 26 postseason games, logging over 25 minutes of ice time a night as a top-pairing defenseman. In the Game 7 series-clinching win against the Boston Bruins, he led all skaters with 27 minutes and 37 seconds on the ice, and in Game 3 of the Western Conference Final, he tied a franchise record with three assists in a single playoff period. After the Game 7 victory, Parayko famously hoisted the Stanley Cup on the ice alongside 11-year-old Blues fan Laila Anderson, one of the most memorable images of the championship run.

Print Technique & Materials
Prints are reproductions of original paintings using a high-quality inkjet printing technique known as "giclee."
Unframed and framed artwork is printed on archival cotton rag paper, which is acid free and will resist fading and discoloration for generations. Unframed prints on paper are unsigned and feature a 1.5"-2" white border around the image. Most unframed prints are non-standard sizes and will require a custom mat to properly display the artwork, though the outer dimensions of the mat will fit standard frame sizes.
All framing is custom made to the exact specifications of each image, with an acid-free white mat and acrylic glazing (glass is prone to breaking when shipped). Most prints are non-traditional sizes and will not fit properly in mats or frames purchased off the shelf, therefore custom framing is recommended.
Canvas prints are referred to as "gallery-wrapped" because the color or image wraps around the sides of the canvas and it is stapled on the back. The canvas is wrapped around 1.5" deep wood stretcher bars and arrives ready to hang.
Framed canvas prints feature a "float frame," which has a 0.25" gap between the edge of the canvas and the frame moulding. The frame is 2" deep.
Custom Mat for Unframed Paper
Most unframed prints are non-standard sizes and will require a custom mat to properly display the artwork, though the outer dimensions of the mat will fit standard frame sizes.
You can purchase a custom mat from your local frame shop or online. If online, we suggest Matboard & More. Choose Arctic White in Decorative Quality, or if you prefer to upgrade, select White Art in Conservation Quality.
