Disc Golf Painting / artwork

MichaelWebster · Jun 05 2007, 12:28 AM

As an avid disc golfer i have always wondered why there was so little art devoted to disc golf, so i wanted to create something that would show one of the premier holes of disc golf today, Hole 5 at Winthrop Gold.

you can bid for this painting on ebay and if you have any questions, pm or email or talk to me in person if you see me at the course.

Winthrop Hole 5 on Ebay

Why must art be so far out of my budget!?

I am so commissioning you to do some disc golf hole paintings to decorate my house 10 years down the road!

jefferson · Jun 05 2007, 08:01 AM

pickup available?

ZAMson · Jun 05 2007, 12:08 PM

Great idea and great painting! Impressionism is a good style for disc golf

I say great idea because I've had the same idea. Ink probably, maybe some paint or chalk (BA in Drawing). I'll be CenTex-bound for mine... no Winthrop. But all 36 holes at Circle R? Maybe...

Way to go disc golf artists. Good up.

MichaelWebster · Jun 05 2007, 02:28 PM

pickup would be available, and if you live near greenville i may be able to take it too you free myself. i will be in zebulon for the tournament.

m_conners · Jun 05 2007, 02:28 PM

Nice job, Michael.

tacimala · Jun 05 2007, 03:17 PM

Very impressive! It would be very cool to see more of that type.

wander · Jun 05 2007, 05:24 PM

Another fine addition to the pantheon of disc golf art. I'm a fan of the "t-shirt" quilt myself, I've seen several of those through the years.

An excellent choice of subject, as well. I have a cousin who has a side art business painting oils for country clubs. Lucrative, and he gets a lot of nice rounds of golf in the deal as well. Maybe one day, that will work for disc golf as well.

$138 is dirt cheap for a painting.

I'm gonna hafta consult with the boss on this one...

ZAMson · Jun 05 2007, 06:07 PM

I'd like to see some more disc golf art. Anyone got photos? Drawings, paintings, prints, fine photography, good stamps, full-colors, shirts. What's out there in DG art?

m_conners · Jun 05 2007, 08:43 PM

At AmWorlds last year there was a guy with really cool DG jewelry.

Anybody know who I'm talking about?

readysetstab · Jun 05 2007, 08:52 PM

just so you know, i think no one has bid because of your "0" feedback. ebayers are usually safe buyers. you could probably make 25% more with a good feedback rating. you might want to consider taking it off and using someone elses account if you know someone with decent feedback. it'll be more profitable for you.

tacimala · Jun 05 2007, 09:57 PM

Neil Brown from St. Louis had a really awesome framed and matted photo that he took when I was down there for new years this past year. I've seen some of his other photos too and he does some awesome work.

MichaelWebster · Jun 05 2007, 10:14 PM

yes i realize i didnt have a history on ebay prior to this and that may make it difficult to sell anything. I may sell some discs to get some feedback, this is my first time on ebay and i expected 0 feedback would be a problem.

rhett · Jun 06 2007, 12:21 AM

I'm betting you get at least one bid...

tbender · Jun 06 2007, 09:13 AM

My boss said no.

ZAMson, Hole 7 on the Meadow. Do it.

flynvegas · Jun 06 2007, 06:09 PM

The artwork for the $50000 tournament is sweet. I have the poster framed and in my office at work. Got it from Steady Ed's collection.

Zach has skills, he's working on a stamp for me right now.

MichaelWebster · Jun 08 2007, 01:47 PM

would everyone be interested in paintings of any more disc golf holes? if so which courses or holes?

EricJKopit · Jun 09 2007, 11:53 AM

DeLaveaga Hole #27 "Top of the World" would be SICK!

I don't think you could do it from a photo though, I've never really seen one that gives the view justice.

Hey, you can't go wrong by doing other Winthrop Gold holes, especially if you live near there.

I may bid on the Hole #5 painting...

Here are a few from Huntsville.http://www.dennispackard.com/Sports.html

thediscinmusician · Dec 09 2007, 09:52 PM

Anyone know of anybody that does Disc Golf Art. Like paintings or sculptures or stuff like that. I mean so many beautiful holes to be photographed or drawn, etc...

Just wondering if anyone could help me out there!

Thanks!

ChrisWoj · Dec 09 2007, 11:47 PM

Marney White (excuse my spelling if I messed up the first name!) does some absolutely awesome stuff. She's the wife of AmNats TD Todd White. This is a painting she did of Juliana Korver.

ZAMson · Dec 10 2007, 09:22 AM

Me me me me! The drawing below (part of my thesis) is dg-inspired. I can draw/paint photorealistically too, but I like this style of pen work. This piece is 14"x17". (portfolio coming soon.. zamdesign.com)

johnrock · Dec 10 2007, 12:56 PM

Markham Reed from Albuquerque, New Mexico does quite a bit of disc golf inspired art. He has designed many logos for New Mexico events, plus lots of other artsy stuff. Most of it has a Native American style. Very talented individual.

Greatzky2 · Dec 10 2007, 12:57 PM

my girlfriend did this for me... not a realistic style, but i still love it... Main character for my disc golf company/site.

Whenever I meet somebody who can paint, I ask them to do a DG one. So far I have 4, and I plan on continuing to collect as long as I can.

I also have it in the works to have one of the artists donate one to our State tournament so we can auction it off.
