After receiving an art scholarship, Manuel Hinojosa earned his degree in Fine Arts from Pan American University. Enrolling at the University of Southern Louisiana in Lafayette, he added a degree in Architecture. Now in his 40th year of practicing Architecture, he serves as the District Architect for the Brownsville Independent School District. For his contributions to the field of architecture and cultural preservation, he was named a distinguished “Fellow” of the American Institute of Architects (FAIA) in 2009. It is Hinojosa’s artistic abilities that have received national recognition. His paintings have not only attracted the likes of Beckett Sports magazine, who have printed various pieces including Mickey Mantle, David Robinson, Dan Marino, etc., but also created an impressive sports museum housing many of his autograph paintings collected over the last four decades. Hinojosa most renown work of art is the Tom Landry mural in Mission which was dedicated by Tom Landry in 1985. Hinojosa alongside his wife, Norma and brother Rick co-owned Doubleday’s Bar of Champions and Museum in Port Isabel. The museum exhibits the largest sports memorabilia collection in Texas. <h3> “To Dream, Diversify and never miss an angle.” – Walt Disney </h3> From an early age, Manuel Hinojosa dreamed of being a part of the magical Walt Disney experience. In 1964, Hinojosa booked a bus trip (as a dishwasher to afford the fare) to the New York City’s World’s Fair to witness the first installation of Disney’s “It’s a Small World.” In 1965, he entered the celebrated gates of the Magic Kingdom in Anaheim. Manuel knew then that the world of imagination was where he wanted to venture, and thus began his lifelong journey into his love of art. Early in his childhood, Hinojosa’s parents followed the advice of his fifth-grade teacher to enroll him into private art classes. Mission’s renowned oil painter, Ann Doffing, was the chosen tutor. For the next six years she instructed Hinojosa about the tools and secrets of oil painting. Prior to his graduation from high school, he competed with other South Texas artists and was awarded a college art scholarship to Pan American College. Later receiving a Bachelors of Fine Arts, Hinojosa pursued a master’s program but instead enrolled into the University of Southern Louisiana’s Architecture school. Using the left side of his brain to compensate for the lessor exercised analytical opposite, Hinojosa persevered through the five years of the critical curriculum demanded by the university’s architectural studies. He completed his professional degree receiving its highest award, the Alpha Rho Chi. For the last forty years, Hinojosa has had the fortuitous privilege to have worked with some of the best firms in the state of Texas. Hinojosa also received the national distinction of “Fellow” as bestowed by the American Institute of Architects with the acronym title attachment of “FAIA”. “Working as an Architect has been the mainstay of my business practice but drawing and painting has continued to be my pastime passion.” Although Hinojosa’s successful career has been fulfilling and has allowed him to pursue facets of architectural and cultural preservation, his love for art and painting have remained at the forefront, and an important part of his life. Since the early 1990’s, Hinojosa’s art has received national recognition and has been featured on publications including Beckett Sports Magazine, various printed publications and literature, local murals, and museums. Over the last decade, Hinojosa has successfully fulfilled a lifelong dream of completing his first novel. ‘Rode Hard: The Rise and Fall of a Jockey Legend’ is a biography written about local horse jockey legend, and lifelong friend, Herberto Hinojosa. The novel received critical acclaim and is wonderfully illustrated by Hinojosa. Hinojosa alongside his wife, Norma and brother Rick co-owned Doubleday’s Bar of Champions and Museum in Port Isabel. The museum exhibits the largest sports memorabilia collection in Texas, with a curated collection of paintings by Hinojosa and autographed work collected over a lifetime.

Tom Brady is one of the best quarterbacks of all time. He's the greatest quarterback of all time for that matter, winning five Super Bowls, and now just not any ordinary Super Bowls, they were the most exciting footballs of all time. He played with New England Patriots and later in the latest survival win with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This painting is one of my favorite paintings simply because Tom Brady signed it and I have it on display at my prime place at my Double Dave's Museum. Tom Brady is a hall of famer when he is eligible, there's no doubt about it. Purchase includes a digital copy of the art as NFT.

Green Bay Packers have had many great quarterbacks. Today, Aaron Rodgers seems to be their new great quarterback.&nbsp;He's had a Super Bowl, and he's been to Super Bowl games that he has not won, but he represents one of the best quarterbacks out there. It seems like every year could be a great year for him. Really has a lot of talent and we expect good things from them.This painting was sent to Aaron Rodgers and I had a little time getting the autograph because he just was asking for a lot of money, but I finally gave in and had him sign it to have to add to my collection of quarterbacks.&nbsp;He would probably be a hall of fame but I always remember it was well worth having the painting signed by Aaron Rodgers.Aaron Rodgers Painting by Manuel HinojosaOn display at the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art&nbsp;April 8th - May 28th

Adrian Peterson was a running back for the Minnesota Vikings. I had the pleasure of seeing him play in Minnesota but unfortunately, it was a game where he injured himself by breaking his leg during the game against Green Bay. That same year, he ended up running for 2,000 yards and was the youngest back to reach 10,000 yards.Adrian Peterson is a hall of fame. The painting that I have of Adrian Peterson is done in watercolor and it represents one of the top running backs of all time.Adrian Peterson Painting by Manuel HinojosaOn display at the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art&nbsp;April 8th - May 28th
