Description
Two golfers approach the 9Th tee on the world famous Ailsa Course at Turnberry Scotland. The hole is called Bruce's Castle since the ruins can be seen in the background with the famous lighthouse adjoining. This is one of the most photographed holes in golf and is situated atop a cliff top with a 50 feet drop below. Your drive has to carry a gap and then land on a saddle back fairway. As in most of my paintings I wanted to convey a mood. There is the burst of sunlight accentuating the lighthouse structure and the sea crashing on the rocks below. Together with the golfing partners walking to the tee this gives movement to the painting.
