Spawning Male Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) with Alewife Limited Edition Giclee Print 48"x 24" Gallery Wrapped Limited Edition Giclee Print
Karen was commissioned to create this piece to celebrate the completion of the Howland Dam Bypass on the Penobscot River in Howland, Maine. The Bypass was designed by Kleinschmidt and completed as a joint collaboration supported by The Penobscot River Restoration Trust, Maine Audubon, Trout Unlimited, The Nature Conservancy, American Rivers, the Penobscot Nation, Natural Resources Council of Maine, and the Atlantic Salmon Federation. Karen's design features a detail of the architectural plans for the bybass in the background and the logos of the supporting organization.
This gallery-wrapped limited edition giclee print is a ready-to-hang, museum quality reproduction printed on canvas with archival pigment inks. It is one of only 60 printed in the run and is hand-signed and -numbered by Karen. See below for a brief video about Karen's gallery-wrapped limited edition giclee prints.

Select giclee prints are available with embellishing and remarquing options. Both of these options offer a greater degree of artist involvement and result in very unique, one-of-a-kind pieces. In the case of embellishing a canvas giclee, Karen hand-embellishes the giclee print with acrylic paints, and in the case of remarquing, she adds a hand-painted detail to the bottom of the painting (watch a short video of Karen adding a remarque to a limited edition giclee here. Both of these options greatly increase the value and uniqueness of the print, and they are the best choice for print collectors wishing to acquire highly-specialized prints with an even greater degree of collectability. If you would like your limited edition giclee to be remarqued, you will need to choose which remarque you would like Karen to include (if you'd like a lure instead of a fly, please choose "Remarqued (w/ fly)" and add that you would prefer a lure in the comments field at check-out.
