Mary Lynne Jewell is a forest-based Canadian Vancouver visual artist who is excited about the "awe" power of Stanley Park's Hollow Tree.
Jewell works on old-growth trees and specializes in painted monoprints of their bark. This technique is called "frottage", which is a type of alternative painting that reproduces a direct impression of the bark surface applied with acrylic paint and a roller. Jewell emulates First Nations artists who celebrate a spiritual oneness with nature. She also follows in the footsteps of Emily Carr, who painted in the forest of Stanley Park when she moved to Vancouver.
A digital scan of the original painting was used as the model to make giclée prints reproduced on acid-free paper in pigment-based inks. Each image is 5"X7" matted in white at 8"X10". Each of the 15 prints is a signed original and is created by the artist's own hand.
