Golf Ball Diver

I've been collecting so-called "low-brow" art prints for a number of years. Low brow art is fun, irreverent, and often has a dark humour.

When one of my work colleagues was a boy, he told me the story of sneaking into golf courses with scuba gear, and stealing the balls out of the golf water hazards. But the water was dyed blue. He and his friends were walking around town, their skin dyed blue. Needless to say, they were quickly caught by the police for trespassing!
