With The Open making its much-anticipated return to Royal Portrush, I felt compelled to honour this moment through art. I set out on a journey across the island, visiting 13 of its most prestigious courses, capturing their spirit, energy, and unique charm in my signature poured-paint style. The response so far has been incredibly heartening, and I\u2019m truly excited to share the full \u2018Irish Golf\u2019 collection with visitors at The Bushmills Inn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Known for her distinctive poured-paint technique, Callaghan captures the essence of her subjects with vibrant energy and spontaneity. Her work, which blends realism with abstract expression, has garnered international acclaim and is featured in collections across the globe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The \u2018Irish Golf\u2019 exhibition is free to visit and follows on from Kathryn\u2019s Northern Ireland Art Trail, a series of ten original artworks which were displayed in venues along the stunning Northern Ireland coastline last summer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To view the collection online, visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kathryncallaghan.co.uk\/irish-golf-exhibition-by-kathryn-callaghan\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.kathryncallaghan.co.uk\/irish-golf-exhibition-by-kathryn-callaghan\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1748943241636000&amp;usg=AOvVaw38mlbIrdmQ5Mi0qU3ZjRkP\">https:\/\/www.kathryncallaghan.co.uk\/irish-golf-exhibition-by-kathryn-callaghan\/<\/a>\u00a0and follow Kathryn Callaghan on social media.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Co Down Artist Kathryn Callaghan is exhibiting her \u2018Irish Golf\u2019 artworks of 13 iconic Irish links golf courses from 5 June to 31 July on Northern Ireland\u2019s historic \u2018golf coast\u2019.
