My desire is to capture a number of the key elements of our golfing experience at PGC.
The new 18th hole is an excellent par 3 to finish a round, showcasing the strong visual presence of the new bunker style.
The busy club house is a hallmark of PGC, a reflection of the importance of the social element that is cherished by members and guests.
The towering eucalypts frame the course and are a PGC trademark.
I would call myself a ‘hobby water colourist’ with a desire to better my skills and the invitation to produce a piece of artwork for PGC’s Centenary has not only been an honour, but also a great opportunity to focus on a passion. I enjoy the unique challenges of watercolour painting, with its unpredictability, luminosity and magic. I am primarily self-taught and have also had the opportunity to attend several workshops with Charles Reid and David Taylor.
