The standards were set many generations ago. Great influential poets, philosophers, and historians proudly wrote about the elegant charm of the northeast region of Massachusetts. It was in 1989 when renowned course architect Robert Trent Jones Sr. schemed about creating a private 18-hole club in the heart of the northeast region of Massachusetts. From day one, Ipswich Country Club established itself as a premier facility in the private golf club world. A course of unsurpassed beauty coupled with a family-oriented atmosphere make Ipswich one of the most admirable clubs in the northeast. Since then, Ipswich Country Club has undergone several changes in both management and course renovation. Here is your chance to get on our private course! The price includes Green Fees + Cart Fee. There will be a beverage cart and items for purchase at The Turn.

John Cosby – Oil Painting A Simple Way of Locking Down the Light When painting on location one of the problems we face is establishing a light and shadow balance quickly. If you can get the design down you can adjust the shapes to guide the eye to your area of interest. For this demonstration my intention is to show you how I approach locking down the light effect with a Notan style underpainting in a neutral value. This neutral value is put down in the first 10 minutes and establishes both the shadow and light pattern on the canvas. This start will not only aid you in locking down the light effect but set you up for the color and value needed to finish out the effect you intended. I will then show you how I complete the painting with edge adjustment, color harmony and details.
