There's No Place Like Augusta in April

Heading into the year's first major at Augusta, Russell Henley was looking to better his fourth-place finish in 2023. Although he tied for 38th this time, going into it he spoke about how he normally prepares for a tournament.


We've partnered with the Henleys — four-time PGA TOUR winner Russell Henley and renowned artist, entrepreneur and author Teil Duncan Henley. This inspiring couple continues sharing stories, whether that's from the golf course, the art studio or at home in Columbus, Georgia, where they live with their three children. Both are native Georgians who represent how ambition, dedication and a strong support system can result in success while also balancing some of life's challenges.

Teil Duncan Henley

Birthplace: Columbus, Georgia
Residence: Columbus, Georgia
Family: Husband, Russell, and three children
Education: Auburn University
Instagram: @teilart
Website: teilduncan.com

Career: Fine art painter. According to Teil, she is inspired by light, movement, surprising color combinations, social interaction, and patterns. Her goal is to infuse these elements and form abstracted, pixilated compositions. No matter the subject, she strives to portray a balance of realism combined with loose abstraction, causing one to complement the other.
Fashion style: “Clean and comfy with an edge! I think because my studio is a mess, and my life is so fast paced with work, babies, and travel, I like to feel put together to counterbalance that.”
Favorite paint color: “Right now, washed indigo!”

Favorite Instagram account: “It’s close to impossible for me to choose a single favorite Instagram account. I love looking at Schumacher and all the beautifully designed rooms. I love Marysia Swim and her gorgeous branding. I also follow countless artists who blow me away on a daily basis.”



Teil’s textile and wallpaper line portrays the same bold colors found in her original paintings, while also bringing in neutral elements that pair well with the home you’ve already created. Whether enveloping you in a room or acting as a pop of color, we hope you find a pattern that speaks to you and makes you feel at home.

Check out Teil's new line of textiles and wallpaper, released on March 1.
