Turks & Caicos Sporting Club is an uncommonly beautiful place, with experiences that can’t be recreated anywhere else in the world. We created the Guest Artist Program because we wanted to capture the beauty of life here on Ambergris Cay using the talents of today’s celebrated artists. We’re proud to announce the first artist to accept the honor of participating in the Guest Artist Program is acclaimed sportsman artist, C.D. Clarke.


C.D. comes to Ambergris with a wealth of knowledge on premier bonefishing and the picturesque environment and creatures that go hand in hand with the experience,” says Fuzzy Davis, Turks & Caicos Sporting Club’s Director of Outdoor Pursuits. “We are thrilled to have C.D. join us on Ambergris Cay and anticipate beautiful, pictorial recreations of the sporting life experience we pride as one of the best in the Caribbean


Clarke paints with a sportsman’s understanding. His method of painting captures the light, color and feeling of the sporting scene in a personal, believable way. Along with recent works in the Caribbean, he has captured fishermen and hunters pursuing their passions in Scotland, Alaska, Chile, Zimbabwe, New Brunswick, Quebec, Montana, and Texas.


“My goal in the paintings that I will do at Turks & Caicos Sporting Club at Ambergris Cay will be to capture the bonefisherman’s experience,” says Clarke. “I’ll be painting right out on the flats, capturing the colors, the textures, the light, the landscape- the action of it all. Ambergris Cay is such a unique, pristine place and I am honored to be invited to paint such an island treasure.”
