Golf Course Paintings
Oil paintings of the great holes of golf, painted on site by Linda Hartough.
Linda Hartough has painted golf courses for four decades. Augusta National Golf Club commissioned her first golf painting, the 13th hole, in 1984, and since 1988 she has painted nothing but golf landscapes. She is the only artist ever commissioned by both the United States Golf Association and The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews to paint the U.S. Open and The Open Championship.
Each golf painting starts with days on the course. Linda studies the light, the angles and the lie of the land, then works in oil in the studio, blending photographic precision with her own memory of the place. The aim, in her words, is a painting that transcends the scene: one a golfer recognizes hole by hole, and one that still works as a landscape painting for someone who has never played the game.
From oil painting to print
The gallery publishes Linda's paintings as fine art prints: canvas giclées, textured canvas prints, paper giclées, fine art paper prints and open edition digital prints. Limited editions are signed and numbered by Linda. Every painting below links to its prints, with every format and size in which it is published.
