The NY Post did a great feature and interview with Desmond Mason in February of 2015: ‘Meet the NBA player-turned-artist who paints for George Clooney.’ « While many monied hoopsters are amassing art, the 37-year-old is creating it. In the years since he retired from the NBA 2009, Mason has sold his work to notables such as movie star George Clooney, sportscaster Joe Buck, nightlife honcho Rande Gerber and Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz.
