What is a Giclée? Giclée (zee-clay) a French word meaning a fine mist or spray, is a fine art reproduction printed on an IRIS 3000 series printer. The IRIS has the ability to emit 1,000,000 micro sized droplets of ink per second from each of it’s four (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) nozzles, to produce a continuous stream of ink analogous to a fine mist. IRIS Giclée prints are the most beautiful and artistically correct of all methods of reproducing fine art and photography today. The Artist's Style ... Serving as a volunteer for nearly 25 years with Canoe New Brunswick and the Canadian Recreational Canoeing Association provided many opportunities to make friends throughout Canada. Because of these experiences and encouragement from paddling friends, he was inspired to continue his hobby of recreating authentic canoe and kayak paddles. The artwork on paddles of the Pacific Northwest captured his interest and inspired him to develop his own unique style that focuses on natural history themes of Atlantic Canada. Presently, three art works are completed with several others soon to be released. All art is reproduced as Giclee.

Flowerpot Whale - According to Mi’kmaq legend, the “flowerpot rocks” of Hopewell Cape were formed by giant whales. The whales were angered by an attempted escape of their enslaved people. As the escaping slaves reached shore, the whales turned them into “stone flowerpots”. Here the whales inhabit “The Rocks”. |

The Northern Lobster is a seafood delight. Here the Bay of Fundy colors of green and black provide a sharp contrast to the familiar table-ready red. In earlier days the poor children of fishing families traded their lobster sandwiches for the peanut butter & jelly of their friends. |

Full Moon Over Fundy depicts the powerful effect of the moon and
sun’s gravitational force on the giant tides in the Bay of Fundy, as
they twice daily flood the Magnificent stone “flowerpots” at Hopewell
Rocks. With tides at the head of the Bay of Fundy sometimes
exceeding 50' and with a daily discharge of water equal to that of every
freshwater brook, stream and river on planet earth, it is little wonder
that The Bay of Fundy is recognized as “A Marine Wonder of the
World”

Baymount’s “Fundy Walking Sticks”
|
|
| Our Beech (Fagus grandifolia) walking sticks, covered in gnarls and bumps, typify how strength builds through adversity. Enduring the Beech canker, the tree compensates by growing in this unusual pattern, enhancing the wood’s beauty. Beechnuts are favorite treats for squirrels, raccoons, bears and large birds. As these sturdy sticks guide your steps, remember the words “beech” and “book” come from the same root (ancient Saxons and Germans wrote on beech boards). |
|
| Tamarack “Hackmatack” or “Eastern Larch” (Larix decidua) walking sticks with their “dimpled skin” are crafted from the only coniferous tree in the northeast to drop all its needles in the winter. As you walk with this stick remember its history of usefulness: Its slender roots were used by aboriginal craftsmen to sew together strips of birch bark to create their canoes. Later, early settlers used the roots of this tree as “knees” to join ribs to deck timbers in building small ships. |
|
| Canada’s flag has a Red Maple leaf at its center. Baymount’s handsome Red Maple (Acer Rubrum) walking sticks are crafted from this appropriately named tree-its twigs, buds, flowers and autumn leaves are red. As it secures your steps, remember Canada and pioneers who used its bark to dye clothes and to make ink to write to their loved ones. |
|
| “Moose Maple” also known as “Striped” or Mountain Maple (Acer spicatum) walking sticks are renowned. Since this tree’s bark is a favorite snack for moose, deer and beaver, a legend suggests your chances of spotting these locals increase if you’re carrying our “Moose Maple” walking sticks. No scientific study as been done to confirm this. |

|
“Staghorn Sumac” (Rhus typhina) is frequently known as “Velvet Sumac” because the hairy branches resemble deer antlers “in velvet”. Its raw fruit, related to the cashew family is rich in vitamin A and was eaten by Aboriginal peoples in salads and crushed to make “lemonade”. The fruit is a favorite food of grouse, pheasant, song birds, small mammals, deer and moose. Sumac’s bark and leaves, rich in tannin, have been used to tan leather
