"He notes, 'I realise golf is almost a taboo subject, it's so uncool,' but insists that his work focuses more on landscape than the sport itself."
"Cranston's recognition as an artist came later in life, with exhibitions in major cities, yet he values a smaller exhibition in Stromness for its beauty and significance."
