Oil on Canvas
24" x 36"
This latest golf course piece has been in the works for nearly 5 months. I started on it last Fall. About two-thirds of the way into it, I was asked to create a new piece for a client, so this one got put on hold. As it sat in the corner waiting to be finished, I had numerous ideas on ways to accomplish a certain look for different pieces of the painting. How did I want to present the water? was it going to be a completely still day with a glass-like calmness? Or should there be a slight chop to the water? This was also a first for me to include buildings of any sort in the landscape. Typically, I like to present the course for what it is- without any distractions "man made" additions. However, this time I felt like the homes in the background help develop the painting and add a small area of interest that otherwise may have been lost in the rough.
