Turnberry Golf Painting Finished

12th hole "Monument" Ailsa Course Turnberry Scotland

A change of plan on the Turnberry Golf painting regarding the finish...

I pondered and decided to give it the painterly  brush mark treatment resulting in blocks of colour instead of a smoother appearance...

This gives it a 3 dimension appearance from a distance then as you move closer the painterly brushstrokes show more predominately...

Drying time now then a light application of varnish...

Have a good weekend everyone... :-)

This painting and others are available here
