The watercolor painting of "Yellow Jasmine," the eighth hole of Augusta National, by Mack Baltzegar, is an embodiment of the vibrant energy found on the last par 5 of the front nine. Sketched during a practice round of the 1968 Masters, the painting captures the strategic complexity and natural beauty of this iconic hole.
Baltzegar's use of color and texture conveys the lushness of the course, with the fairway's meticulous striping indicative of the careful maintenance that Augusta is known for. The verdant trees are interspersed with hints of the namesake yellow jasmine, adding a splash of color that pays homage to the hole's namesake.

This distinctive collection of original artwork takes you on an enthralling journey through the renowned 18 holes and the historic clubhouse, capturing the magic of the Masters as it was in a former time.
Created by the skilled Mack Baltzegar, inspired by his experience at a 1968 practice round and his meticulous photography of each hole, these artworks vividly depict the quintessence of Augusta National before its contemporary changes. Acting as a portal to the past, we view this era through the perspective of a man who discovered comfort in golf while growing up as an orphan and found renewal in the game after his military service.
Assembled by Baltzegar’s family and aficionados of golf, this collection intertwines art, tradition, and the ethos of sportsmanship, presenting an exclusive glimpse into the untouched beauty and historic greens of Augusta in the days before it was reshaped by modern times.
