IMO the best pool art I have ever seen was the guy with the prosthetic leg, and the caption of "One foot on the Floor".

Don't do the Color of Money and Hustler movie posters, I have them, and EVERYBODY else does too....:rolleyes:

I found a seller on ebay that sells posters for 9 ball championships with Minnesota Fats and he puts your name on the poster as the challenger. Very well done too and not on cheap paper either.
I put my Dad's name as the challenger, I really like it and it looks great framed on the wall in my pool room.

Not bad for ten bucks.
 
I wish I could get this in a poster size. It's from someone's (sorry, I forget who) avatar.

An idea I have would be a leather sign. Something in the cow hide shape with a cool gangster font or old type font with words like Billiards, Hustler, 14.1 8 Ball or any combination with with a unique leather tooled flowers shapes or symbols like JB puts into his cases.

that would be cool.
 
Here is one that a local player air brushed for me. I wanted the 8 and 9 as those represented my two favorite games.

I've got lots of cool pool posters, suitable for framing. You can find them at jayhelfert.com
 
ok guys,i think i should have told you that i'm an artist myself so i'm looking for ideas so i can paint or sketch some myself,not looking to buy any,sorry if i gave the wrong impression
 
I commissioned a local artist to do some art for me. It's not pool related, but it's in my pool room :)

Nothing like custom art AND supporting the local community.

Yer an artist. Cool, so was I at one time.

I worked for the Government of Canada.

I drew Unemployment.

I know sad. From a guy that can draw a stick man pretty good, it is a nice talent to have, just like the ability to play an instrument by ear.

You have the ability to paint by eye and not by number.

Well, I don't know what kind of art you want to make (painting, computer graphics, photograph?), but I've always liked this picture of Greenleaf. It has a strong silhouette and a nice perspective. This kind of pose and perspective might make a good painting, maybe? Edit: Accidentally uploaded the wrong pic. This was the one I meant.
