Speaking about the inspiration for her latest collection, Kathryn said: “Few places in the world rival the raw beauty and character of Ireland’s landscapes, especially its iconic links golf courses. With The Open making its much-anticipated return to Royal Portrush, I felt compelled to honour this moment through art.

“I set out on a journey across the island, visiting 13 of its most prestigious courses, capturing their spirit, energy and unique charm in my signature poured-paint style. The response so far has been incredibly heartening, and I’m truly excited to share the full ‘Irish Golf’ collection with visitors at The Bushmills Inn.”
