“Popcorn flew around Josée Tellier at Olympic Stadium like a snow shower in May.

It was launched back and forth by her restless fourth grade classmates who weren’t paying attention to the Montreal Expos on the field below.

But Tellier was. She had a deep passion for the game even then, a passion that is still evident 38 years later in the way she talks about the game and in her career choice. Baseball is her love, and art is her outlet. She’s been creating baseball art pieces out of her home in Montreal since 2019.

In fact, it’s creating that art that saved her three years ago — specifically, a Yogi Berra baseball card.”
