The 1st of my Northern Irish Legend Portraits is of the Holywood-born Rory McIlroy.
“Rory McIlroy’s golfing story is very much an organic one; from a toddler with a plastic golf club mimicking his father’s swing, to his ascent through the amateur ranks, turning professional and ultimately becoming the international golfing superstar he is today.“

‘RORY’, measuring 122cm x 81cm this piece was so much fun to create. Rory has a really cool look, and I knew I could spend a lot of time studying how to spray, paint and draw on his different features.
A pleasure to paint and the final result is so striking and epic. It is a great talking and viewing point. You will be admired by all your guests as they admire your choice of art.
Make sure to watch the ‘Making of’ video below, but to sum it up, it was as follows:
Chose a cool reference picture
Roughly white washed a board
Threw down some guidelines
Applied my 1st coat of Tin awesomeness
Brought the detail back through with acrylic pen
Applied the ‘Darkness’ 😵💫
Brought The Queen to life 😉
You’re welcome
