(HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C.) – Linda Hartough, world-renowned golf-landscape artist (www.hartough.com), will have a selection of her work displayed in the exhibit, Fore! Images of Golf in Art, April 28 through Sept. 15, at the Franklin G. Burroughs-Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum, in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

“It is wonderful that so many people who appreciate art and golf will have the opportunity to see this special exhibition,” Hartough said. “The chance to see golf art displayed in such an intensely golf-loving region will be something people will enjoy and remember.”

Hartough’s painting style, a classic and elegant rendering of famous golf holes, reveals her attention to detail and realistic perspective, and captures the dramatic mood and natural beauty of each landscape.
