Art Themes - March Madness

This is a high energy, exiting, action packed painting.  It is based on the collegiate basketball finals called The Final Four. Because the events occur in March, this exciting competition is sometimes called March Madness.

March Madness is part of the NCAA Basketball program.

Of course, the NBA site has more information.
