The Layered Look

Entitled "Layered Lines," this 2018 artwork is by contemporary artist Michael Rausch, using vivid colors and a combination of acrylic paint, wax, and resin to create complex texture and dimension. 

Rausch, a native of Portland, Oregon, divides his time between Portland and Palm Springs, California, with his husband, Dale Scott. Scott himself made sports history when, in 2014, while a Major League Baseball (MLB) umpire, he came out as gay. Scott and Rausch met in 1986 in Portland and were married in 2013 in Palm Springs. The mayor of Palm Springs officiated the ceremony. After retiring from the MLB in 2017, Scott published a memoir of his over thirty years in pro baseball entitled The Umpire is Out: Calling the Game and Living My True Self.
