Bryson DeChambeau Portrait Presentation

April 14, 2025

Pinehurst Country Club
Pinehurst, North Carolina

The USGA presented a plaque to Bryson DeChambeau which the club installed near the bunker at the 18th hole course No. 2.  The plaque records his historic shot that landed him the US Open 2024 Championship.  I had very recently completed his portrait and readied it for shipping, when this opportunity to present it in person occurred.   It was an honor to partake in the event and show him the finished portrait – a memory I hold dear.

The Salmagundi Club

Wonderful News

This September, after reviewing my portfolio of paintings, the Salmagundi Club approved me for membership.  This is such an honor.  The club began in 1871 as both a professional and social club for artists.  It is located at 47 Fifth Street in New York. “The Club has continuously championed representational art from its founding with iconic members, including Thomas Moran (1837-1926), William Merritt Chase (1849-1916), Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848-1933), Emil Carlsen (1848-1932), N.C. Wyeth (1882-1945), Childe Hassam (1859-1935) and Winston Churchill (1874-1965).”
