C. D. Clarke says he was born to paint and fish and hunt, and
he’s done just that over his lifetime, capturing memorable times
on the water and in the field on canvas and finessing that passion
and pastime into a laudable career. This magnificent book of his
work features 200 paintings, tableaus of color, light, motion, and
possibility, created over the course of forty years fishing and
hunting in the world’s most coveted destinations. Clarke prefers
to work en plein air, and on site he fills sketchbooks with scenes
that inspire the oils and watercolors he later refines in his New
Jersey Highlands studio. At an early age Clarke discovered the work
of the wildlife artists Ogden Pleissner, Chet Reneson, Thomas
Aquinas Daly, and John Swan, and they influenced his style.
Clarke’s work is featured in galleries and museums nationwide and
he exhibits at the most prestigious wildlife art shows and
festivals. He is regularly featured in the top wildlife and
sporting publications.
