Tennis is more than just a game; it brings back memories of summer days spent all day at the tennis courts eating Fudgiscles, rallying with friends, and soaking in the summer sun. I love everything about tennis - wearing tennis whites, the smell of a freshly opened can of balls, the ping sound when you hit a ball perfectly on the sweet spot of your racket strings, and the feeling of hitting a winning volley.

Recently, tennis has boosted my creativity on and off the court, much like these interesting artworks inspired by the game.
