Spring at Augusta

Hello! This weekend sees the third venerable sporting event that, in my mind, means that Spring has finally arrived, the Masters Golf Tournament in Augusta, USA. It’s a great contest between the best players on one of the finest courses in the world. The sun has shone brightly and the greens are fast and tricky to play. I love this tournament but have never drawn it before, so it’s a great challenge to capture it. More to follow but these are my first attempts. Here a my drawings:

I’m a mixed media visual artist working in Leicestershire in the UK. I trained in Fine Art using different media including oils and acrylics, but my recent work reflects my love of drawn media, especially pen, ink, watercolour and pastels. My theme is movement – My subjects are varied from landscape, animals, musicians, dancers and sport, especially cycling. The unifying feature of all these subjects is that they are constantly changing – there is movement and energy everywhere.

    All of these drawings are great! They remind me of my Dad. He was a huge golf fan and loved drawings like these. 🙂

      Thanks Jackie, that’s a huge compliment! I think my drawings are a bit wild compared to the elegant beauty of Augusta, but I can’t help it. I’m a bit like ‘Animal’ from the Muppets when I get going!!!! 🙂
