first time to let padraig see the progress on the globe and to add his artistic input.official photos from the charity 'goal global', showing team harrington/robinson to follow shortlyGlobe arrives on the hottest day of the year- PHEW! what a scorcher.Ah memories of terrible tabloid headlines. Well it arrived today and of first viewing I'll need to adjust the surface in the places allocated to Padraig's portraits. But lets not get ahead of ourselves, deep breath and mix the primer. Two coats of that and a base layer should be fine then the addition of any further filling, a sanding and finally the a final base coat. That's before we get creative!! I haven't got long before the 2018 Irish Open, NEXT WEEK!! better get going. more later  #GOALwhatonearth
Padraig Harrington's GlobeI am proud to announce my partner in this brilliant project... Mr Padraig Harrington! We have worked together on a design to bring this globe to life ⛳️ Padraig is pictured here at our meeting during the 2018 PGA Championship at Wentworth. We came up with a join design for our fibre glass globe. The plan is to meet again soon after I have started things off. Padraig with paint brush in hand will selflessly donate some of his time to realise the design. Get ready with your plastic, we want someone to pay a great deal of cash to help people less fortunate. Goal Global do a fantastic job with humanitarian projects worldwide. For further info please go to their site www.goalglobal.org #GOALWhatonEarth #golf #art #announcement #charities  GOAL - What on Earth The GOAL - What On Earth project is a 3D Sculpture Project. 100 resin globes of the world will be painted by selected Artists or two man teams of a VIP & an Arist. The Globes will be displayed and eventually auctioned off in Oct 18 to help in GOAL-Global's humanitarian efforts around the World. I was asked to join this project in May and ever since have been raring to go. The Globes will arrive this week and I will get started setting out my design. I already met my VIP golfing partner at the BMW Championship at Wentworth. He is a three time Major winner and a nice fella to boot. We discussed my ideas, he put forward his views and I was set off on this artistic challenge. I will keep you all up to date with my efforts and I hope this will inspire you to look into GOAL's great work worldwide. I will meet up with my team mate at times and keep you posted. Next meeting The Irish Open. Can you guess who my guest artistic partner/golfer is?  Art Installationwellington national golf club |
