| Since focusing her skills
as a landscape painter to re-create some of the world's most beautiful
golf holes, Linda Hartough has become recognized as one of golf's leading
artists. Her attention to detail makes her oil paintings come alive with
a clarity that surpasses the camera. She is the only artist ever commissioned
by the United States Golf Association and the Royal & Ancient
Golf Club of St. Andrews to do the annual, official paintings and prints
for the U.S. Open and British Open championships. Her paintings
have earned a place on two ABC television golf specials hosted by
Jack
Nicklaus and are in the collections of Augusta National, Pine Valley,
Pinehurst, and Laurel Valley, as well as private collections
around the world.
