The Clark's Log Cabin, Relief Print

CA$385.00

When Lucille and Kenneth were on their way home from Orillia and the weather took a turn, they would stop in and stay with the Clark's until it cleared, who lived half way between The Owl Pen and town. Their original log cabin remains in the family and has a modern addition, similar to The Owl Pen cabin. The Clark’s were friends of Lucille and Kenneth, and when they left their homestead to travel from Georgian Bay to the Gulf of Mexico on an 18 foot outboard cruiser called “The Moonstruck Two”, they were gifted a hand painted life raft by the Clark matriarch, which can be seen on the back cover of the book of the same name.

This image is 9×11 inches and comes framed, please inquire for an unframed copy.

Handprinted with black archival oil based ink on 44g white Kozuke paper.

As seen in The Owl Pen Revisited print show at Orillia Museum of Art and History.

About Relief Printing: This print was created by carving the image into a block of linoleum, which is a flat material made of flax, pine rosin, wood flour, cork dust and calcium carbonate that is held together with a jute backing. Linocut is also known as lino printing and linoleum art, and is a printmaking technique that is a variation on woodcut, where the piece of linoleum is used to carve into rather than wood. The image is carved into the surface using a gouge (similar to a chisel), with the un-carved areas creating a reversal of the image to be printed. The linoleum is inked with a brayer, and printed onto the paper, either by hand or using a press.

About Kozuke Paper: Kozuke Paper is 30% kozo and 70% sulphite fibres. Kozo is fibre from the inner bark of a mulberry tree, and sulphite fibres are composed of cellulose from wood. 

Shipping: Within Canada, shipping is included. All prints are shipped by expedited shipping with tracking.
